Types of Damages You Can Pursue in a Personal Injury Case in Norwalk
There are several types of damages you can recover in a personal injury case in Norwalk. They include:
Economic Damages
Your economic damages come with a fixed financial value. Recovering economic damages gives you compensation for costs that you otherwise would have paid out-of-pocket for. They include:
- Medical expenses: All your medical bills may be recovered, including the costs of medical exams, medications, assistive devices, ambulance transportation, doctor’s appointments, and hospital stays.
- Lost income: Many accident victims need time off work to heal from their injuries. If this is the case for you, our team can help you recover compensation for your lost income.
- Reduced earning capacity: If your injuries make you unable to return to your pre-accident job, you might not be able to make the same income. We can help you seek compensation if you had to take a lower-paying job.
- Property damage: If any of your personal items were lost or destroyed in the accident, you can seek compensation. This may include your car, cell phone, jewelry, and more.
Non-Economic Damages
Though your non-economic damages do not have a direct financial value, our team can help you seek compensation for them. Some of your recoverable intangible losses include:
- Pain and suffering: This non-economic damage compensates you for the physical pain you endured because of the accident.
- Mental anguish: Accident victims often suffer from various forms of emotional distress such as anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Compensation can help pay for mental health therapy.
- Loss of enjoyment of life: If your physical or mental injuries prevent you from enjoying your favorite hobbies or other activities that bring you joy, you can pursue compensation.
Wrongful Death Damages
If someone you love passed away in a fatal personal injury accident, our team offers our most sincere condolences for your loss. We will demand compensation for your wrongful death damages, including:
- Funeral and burial expenses
- Conscious pain and suffering the decedent experienced
- Medical costs incurred before the decedent passed away
- Loss of consortium
- The decedent’s lost earning capacity
Only the executor of the decedent’s estate can file a wrongful death lawsuit on their behalf. We can help you determine who this party is for your family. Our legal team can also determine which family members may benefit from any damages recovered.

You Have to File Your Personal Injury Lawsuit on Time in Norwalk
Our personal injury lawyers recommend you get started on your case as soon as possible. If you plan to file a personal injury lawsuit, you generally must do so within two years, according to CT Gen. Stat. § 52-584. The wrongful death statute of limitations also allows you two years to file, as outlined in CT Gen. Stat. § 52-555.
There are other statutes of limitations that apply to more specific types of personal injury cases, too. For instance, if you or someone you love was involved in a nursing home abuse, product liability, or medical malpractice case, you may need to be aware of a different statute of limitations.
If you’re not sure which laws apply to your case, our team is here to help you. Don’t wait to bring your case to us, as you may be barred from recovering compensation if you miss the statute of limitations.
Proving Negligence in Your Norwalk Personal Injury Case
Before you can recover the compensation you need, our legal team must prove that someone else’s negligence caused your accident. We’ll prove the following four elements:
- Duty of care: The at-fault party had a responsibility to keep you safe. In a car accident case, for example, drivers are expected to follow the rules of the road and drive sober.
- Breach of duty: The at-fault party acted negligently, breaching their duty of care. For instance, a vehicle operator drove drunk.
- Causation: The at-fault party’s action or inaction caused you to suffer injuries. The drunk driver caused your accident by being intoxicated behind the wheel.
- Damages: You suffered damages because of the accident, such as property damage, pain and suffering, and medical bills.
Depending on the type of accident you were involved in, negligence could fall on a vehicle driver, a property owner, a truck manufacturer, or a pet owner. We won’t know who is responsible for causing your injuries until we assess the details of your case.
Evidence We Can Use to Prove Negligence in Your Personal Injury Case
Our team is ready to thoroughly investigate the cause of your personal injury accident. During our investigation, we will gather evidence such as:
- Photos and videos of the accident scene
- Statements from eyewitnesses
- The police report
- Expert witness statements
- Your medical records
- Surveillance footage
- Statements from your friends and family
- Receipts, invoices, and bills related to your accident or injuries
If you have any of these types of evidence, bring them to your legal team. However, don’t push yourself to gather evidence. Our team is happy to gather all the evidence necessary in your case for you.
What to Do After a Personal Injury Accident in Norwalk
Regardless of the type of accident you were involved in, there are several steps you should take to protect yourself and the strength of your legal case. Our Norwalk personal injury lawyers recommend that you:
- Seek medical care right away. Not only does this benefit your health, but it also gives us proof of your medical treatment. We can use your medical records to link the accident to your injuries.
- Gather evidence at the accident scene, if possible. Collect photos, videos, and witness cell phone numbers.
- Avoid speaking to insurance adjusters. They will likely ask for a statement from you, but you do not need to provide one. Let us handle communication with insurance agents.
- Hire our personal injury law firm. We’ll build your case, explain your legal options, and pursue the compensation you deserve.
