What Damages Might You Be Entitled to Receive for Your Injuries?
While your exact damages will depend on the circumstances surrounding your accident as well as the extent of your injuries, most people with serious injuries stemming from another’s negligence are entitled to the following damages:
- Medical expenses (current and future) that are the result of the injuries from your accident. These medical expenses can include ambulance costs, hospital expenses, physician expenses, the cost of prescription drugs, surgical costs, rehabilitative therapy costs, and any assistive devices needed as a result of your injuries.
- Current lost wages for any time that you miss work due to your injuries.
- Future lost wages will estimate how long you will be unable to work as a result of your injuries. If you are injured so severely that you may never be able to return to the work you did before your accident, your attorney will calculate future lost wages based on your age, profession, education, and the number of people who depended on your wages.
- Pain and suffering damages cover actual physical pain resulting from your injuries, as well as emotional pain and trauma. Many injuries—like traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and burn injuries—can leave victims dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and more.
- Punitive damages are rare because they require that the person who caused your accident had gross negligence or intent to harm. In most cases, those who cause accidents are careless but are not deliberately trying to hurt another person.
A knowledgeable Alamogordo, NM personal injury lawyer from Harmonson Law Firm can accurately calculate your damages and then will work aggressively to ensure that the negligent party’s insurer pays the full amount.

What Types of Personal Injury Does the Harmonson Law Firm Accept?
The Harmonson Law Firm excels in handling severe or catastrophic personal injury claims. Suppose a severe trucking accident causes you catastrophic injuries. It takes exceptional knowledge and experience to handle these severe personal injuries which are considered “high stakes” for our clients as well as for the trucking company and their insurance company. We leave no stone unturned and will hire an accident reconstructionist, engineer, safety experts, rehabilitation specialists, vocational specialists, and life care planners to fully quantify the damages that you have suffered. This team approach makes it much more likely that you will receive the maximum compensation for your severe or catastrophic injuries. The Harmonson Law Firm handles the following types of cases:
- Personal injuries—Car, truck, and motorcycle accidents are certainly the most common type of accidents caused by negligence. There are, however, other types of personal injuries that can be the result of negligence, causing severe or catastrophic injuries.
- Car accidents range from minor bump-ins to more serious accidents with severe injuries. Car accidents that involve multiple vehicles are more likely to result in severe injuries for those involved. They are also more complex, as multi-vehicle accidents require dealing with multiple insurance companies and gathering evidence to definitively prove fault. This makes it essential to speak with a highly experienced Alamogordo, NM personal injury lawyer from Harmonson Law Firm.
- Rideshare accidents can be much more complex than a two-car collision because liability can be more difficult to prove. Rideshare drivers must carry the minimum insurance required in their state, however, if the injuries and damages exceed the driver’s insurance limits (assuming the accident is the rideshare driver’s fault), then companies like Uber and Lyft also have insurance that, in theory, will cover the remaining damages.
- Bus accidents are thankfully fairly rare, but when they do occur, passengers can be seriously injured. If the accident involves a city bus, then the rules for personal injury lawsuits are somewhat different, as you have a much shorter amount of time to file a claim against a government entity.
