A personal injury commonly results in the victim having to take time off from work for doctor appointments, or medical treatments. Sometimes, the victim is not physically capable of working. For example, an injury victim may not be able to work after sustaining severe injuries such as loss of sight, loss of hearing or a severe burn injury.
If you are injured, you can seek reimbursement of the amount of money you would have made during the time that you were out of work. This is known as "lost wages."
If because of your injury you are no longer capable of working, you can ask for the loss of wages for future earnings.
Family members of a deceased victim can sue for the lost income that he or she would have earned based on his or her age and salary at the time of death, less the cost of maintenance and other items.
