Maximizing Compensation for Your Personal Injury Claim
Understanding Your Compensation Rights
Compensation in personal injury cases can include economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages cover tangible losses such as medical bills, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages address pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of quality of life.
Economic Damages
Economic damages include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost wages, and loss of earning capacity. We calculate both current and future losses to ensure you receive comprehensive compensation.
Non-Economic Damages
These damages compensate for pain, suffering, mental anguish, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. We work to demonstrate how your injuries have affected your daily life and well-being.
Punitive Damages
In cases involving gross negligence or intentional harm, we pursue punitive damages to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar misconduct.

Frequently Asked Questions – Fulginiti Law
What should I do immediately after an accident?
