Can You Recover Damages for Missing a Special Event Due to a Personal Injury?

In addition to compensation for economic damages, like medical bills and lost wages from missed work, you may recover non-economic damages, including pain and suffering and emotional distress. Therefore, if you missed a special event due to a personal injury, you may receive compensation for the emotional and financial losses involved.

We understand the frustrations of missing out on such a special occasion, especially if you saved up for a long time or had family coming in from out of town, so we work hard to secure the fair compensation you deserve. Our skilled lawyer helps you gather evidence and negotiate with insurance adjusters to give you the best chance of a successful outcome.

How a Lawyer Can Help You Recover Damages for Missing a Special Event

One of the most complex aspects of a personal injury claim is proving negligence and the resulting damages, especially if you missed an event due to your injuries. Having a knowledgeable lawyer by your side is crucial to help you convey the importance of the occasion to insurance adjusters. Additionally, our Hollis Law Firm attorney can help you receive compensation for missing a special event in the following ways:

  • Conducting a detailed investigation
  • Identifying a liable party
  • Collecting and analyzing evidence
  • Organizing receipts and invoices
  • Explaining the preparation, money, time, and care that went into the event
  • Accurately calculating your claim’s worth
  • Negotiating on your behalf
  • Answering your legal questions
  • Filing your claim within the statute of limitations

We strive to help you take full advantage of your opportunity to fight for your rights and recover compensation for missing an important event. With our detail-oriented approach, we can determine if any of your losses can be tied to missing a momentous occasion.
