How Are Long-Term Losses Calculated?

Personal Injury victims often have lifelong financial losses which can accrue for many years after their injuries occurred. How is it possible to recover compensation for projected future losses? Many of these losses will not accrue for years after the statute of limitations has passed. To overcome this challenge, personal injury attorneys work with medical and economic experts to determine the value of the losses caused by the defendant’s negligence. Here are some experts who are commonly called upon to testify about the value of a victim’s injury claim:

• Medical experts (to testify about the exact nature of the victim’s injuries and how these injuries impact the victim’s ability to work)
• Vocational experts (to testify about the victim’s ability to return to work and new earning capacity)
• Economic expert (to testify about the change in the victim’s earning capacity, and to calculate the exact value of the wages and employment benefits that have been lost due to the defendant’s negligence)

Other specialized experts might also be required, depending upon the specific nature of a victim’s losses. For example, a victim who has been permanently disabled might now require round-the-clock nursing care. In such a case, the victim’s attorney might need a nursing expert to testify about the type of care the victim requires, as well as a rehabilitation specialist to testify about the progress the victim can and cannot be expected to make with regular therapies. A medical specialist will also likely be required to testify that the injuries are permanent. This example shows just how many experts can be required of a single case. It is important for victims to have the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney who knows how to find credible experts that can effectively persuade a jury. That's why you should call the professionals at Russo Law LLP when you've suffered an injury in Manhattan or anywhere throughout New York City.
