What are Kentucky’s laws about compensation for pain and suffering?  How are these financial damages calculated after injuries in a Louisville car accident?

Our extensive experience provides insight on placing the proper value on pain and suffering claims.  This can be a very complex legal issue as there is not the hard and fast documentation of an invoice to help to establish this figure.

Pain and suffering is basically compensation for being forced to endure your injuries and recovery, as well as the impact the injuries have had and will have upon your life.  Some examples of damages associated with pain and suffering include but are not limited to:

• The physical pain you have had to endure
• Permanent injury, scarring or other visible signs of your injuries
• The impact injuries have had on your ability to work
• Your ability to continue in your field of employment in the future
• The worry, anxiety, and concern you’ve been forced to bear
• The impact your injuries have had upon your marriage and/or family life

Kentucky’s laws about compensation for pain and suffering provide a broad range of recoverable damages.  There are many sources of provable data which can be used to assist in this calculation.  In addition, HLH attorneys may draw upon the testimony of health professionals and other experts associated with your treatment and recovery.
