Non-Economic Damages in Texas Wrongful Death and Serious Personal Injury Cases

Baseluos Law Firm
There are certain non-economic damage elements that a San Antonio Texas personal injury lawyer can obtain for you in varied cases including wrongful death, medical malpractice, and Texas trucking accidents.

For seriously injured Texas citizens, they may be able to recover damages for pain and suffering in San Antonio Texas auto accident lawsuits . In a wrongful death action, the surviving spouse, children, and parents of the deceased can recover mental anguish damages. Mental anguish damages are those damages that include a mental feeling of pain, such as those that emanate from grief, disappointment, shame, despair, and public humiliation.

In order to recover for mental anguish, a San Antonio personal injury lawyer must demonstrate that the plaintiff suffered a high degree of mental pain and distress that goes above normal worry, anxiety or embarrassment. Texas personal injury law does not require a showing of physical injury to recover mental anguish damages. There is no way to objectively measure mental anguish damages, and the jury has a great deal of discretion in the process. The plaintiff needs to prove to the jury the nature of the mental anguish, its duration, and its severity. The plaintiff must demonstrate a significant disruption in his daily routine as a result.

Future mental anguish damages may be recovered upon a showing that there is reasonable probability there will be future mental anguish. Those plaintiffs with pre-existing emotional conditions can still recover mental anguish damages, although the defendant may argue that the mental anguish suffered by the plaintiff is due to pre-existing conditions.

Whether your family has suffered a Texas wrongful death or serious personal injury, it is incumbent on you to reach out to a San Antonio and greater Texas personal injury attorney as soon as possible.
