A personal injury case has two main elements – liability and damages.
LIABILITY
In Florida, a person or business has a legal duty to do things in a reasonable manner. The failure to act in a reasonable manner under the law is called “negligence”. If the negligence of a person or business causes injuries or losses to another person, they are liable for those losses.
DAMAGES
Damages are the losses that result from injuries and harms caused by negligence. Personal injury damages fall into two main categories: economic damages and non-economic damages. Economic damages involve tangible monetary losses. Non-economic damages are intangible losses that are non-monetary in nature.
The following are some of the common types of economic and non-economic damages:
