When individuals are injured in a Sacramento car crash caused by a negligent driver, they may be eligible to recover various forms of compensation to help alleviate the financial and emotional burdens resulting from their injuries. Below are the main categories of damages that can typically be pursued in a car accident injury case, with expanded explanations:

• Medical Expenses: Injured parties can seek compensation for all medical costs associated with their injuries. This includes hospital stays, surgeries, diagnostic tests, doctor’s visits, physical therapy, prescription medications, and any ongoing or future treatments required for recovery. These expenses can accumulate quickly.
• Lost Income and Earning Capacity: If the injury leaves the individual temporarily or permanently unable to work, they may be entitled to compensation for the income lost during recovery. If the injury impacts earning capacity in the long term, such as preventing the person from returning to their previous job or career path. In that case, damages may be awarded to address this financial loss.
