Damages Our Burnsville Personal injury Lawyers May Recover

In a successful personal injury case, our Burnsville personal injury lawyers can win a settlement for compensatory damages. These include both the economic and non-economic damages you received from the accident. Economic damages, also called special damages, cover your financial losses such as:

• Medical bills and rehabilitation costs and continuing care
• Past and future wage loss
• Property damage.

Noneconomic damages, also called general damages, are compensation for damages that do not have a specific dollar value, but negatively impact your life, including:

• Pain and suffering
• Disability
• Emotional distress and anguish
• Loss of consortium and quality of life.

In some rare cases, you might also be able to recover punitive damages, which are meant to punish the defendant and serve as an example to deter such actions in the future. According to Minnesota law (Minnesota statute § 549.20), damages may be awarded when clear and convincing evidence is available that shows the defendant had deliberate disregard for the rights or safety of others. Wisconsin law (Wisconsin statute § 895.043) places a $200,000 limit on the amount of punitive damages available.

Damage Amounts You May Receive

There is a wide range of damage amounts, from the thousands to millions of dollars, that may be awarded in a successful personal injury case. The amount you may receive depends on the individual circumstances of your case and factors that include:

• The extent and permanence of your injuries and whether you will require continuing care
• Actual costs of your losses and expenses
• Lost earnings and whether you will be able to work in the future
• The availability of insurance coverage and defendant assets
• Whether a wrongful death was involved
• The individual jurisdiction, judge, and jury where your case is heard
• The skill and negotiating power of your attorney

In all cases, our personal injury attorneys in Burnsville will fight for the optimum award possible.

Personal Injury Lawyers in Burnsville, MN, Must Prove Negligence

Proving negligence is a main component of a personal injury claim. To win your case, our team at Tyroler Leonard Injury Law will fully investigate your case to find evidence to show that another party -- the defendant in the case -- was negligent and at fault for causing the accident that resulted in your injuries, and therefore should be held liable. Proving negligence legally requires showing the following elements:

• Duty: The defendant owed a duty of care to the victim not to cause harm.
• Breach: The defendant breached that duty by actions or failure to act.
• Cause: This breach caused the accident that resulted in your injuries.
• Damages: You suffered damages as a result.

In some cases, there may be multiple defendants that contributed to the accident. An example would be a case where a driver hit you but lost control of the vehicle because the parts were faulty and failed. In addition to the driver, defendants may include the manufacturer of the defective part or a mechanic who installed the part incorrectly. If the driver who hit you was intoxicated, we may be able to add the people who supplied the alcohol, especially if a bar over-served the drunk driver or if the drunk driver is an underaged minor and an adult bought the alcohol. Our personal injury lawyers in Burnsville, MN, will look to identify all potentially liable parties, as they all may have assets and insurance that can go toward a settlement. The sooner you have us on your side, the better, as it takes time to build a case; and it’s important to start investigations quickly, while evidence is fresh and witnesses can be found.
