Types of Damages You May Receive Compensation for in Delaware

The state recognizes three types of damages you can collect when you have sustained a personal injury. 

Economic damages cover the exact monetary figure for your medical bills and other economic losses related directly to your injury. For instance, if you were out of work while recovering from your injury, the lost wages would be calculated in economic damages. You would not be repaid for anything covered by insurance. 

Non-economic damages are tougher to quantify. They cover the pain and suffering or mental anguish the client experiences related to the injury, such as post-traumatic stress disorder or depression. Factors such as preexisting injuries and economic impact of the injury are considered when awarding non-economic damages. 

Punitive damages are awarded less frequently and serve as a punishment for when the person responsible for your injury acted out of malice.
