Lost income is difficult whether you’re single or married with a family, and people who suffer severe injuries are the most likely victims of lost income.
Serious injuries like brain injuries, knee injuries, back injuries, heart attacks, strokes, paralysis and amputations are injuries that keep you out of work. What’s important to understand is that if income is lost because of an incident in which someone else is at fault, your medical expenses and lost wages can be recovered.
Make sure to contact a personal injury attorney to help you decide who is at fault and to answer any questions you have. Injuries that result in lost income include:
- workplace injury
- automobile accident
- motorcycle accident
- offshore injury
- medical malpractice
- hospital negligence
- air bag failure
- amusement ride accidents
- part recalls
- drug recalls
- drunk driving accident
- slip and fall
- railroad accident
- swimming pool accident
- pleasure boat accident
- toxic mold
- bicycle accident
And the list goes on. The pain because of an injury is often overshadowed by the stress caused by lost income. Some people have to file bankruptcy in order to pay medical expenses, and once those have been paid, they are left with nothing. Often, medication and therapy is required for the rest of the person’s life, leaving them with a future of expensive medical bills.
