Yes, significant lifestyle changes following an accident can impact your personal injury claim in California. You are eligible to receive compensation for things including:
- Immediate medical costs
- Support and care during recovery
- Long-term medical costs
- Lifelong care
- Pain and suffering
- Lost wages
- Reduced earning capacity
That means if you need to change your job because you are no longer able to perform your regular duties or require lifelong medical care, you may obtain compensation for these lifestyle changes.
However, documenting these changes thoroughly is important. This can be a complex process, which is why you should consult with the experienced personal injury attorneys at the Law Offices of Fernando Vargas.
