When to Seek Damages for Pain and Suffering

Pain and suffering is a broad and often confusing term that is used to describe the physical and emotional pain a victim may feel after an injury accident. It may also be associated with a death accident in relation to the pain the deceased victim felt or the emotional anguish the surviving family felt after their loss. Compensation for psychological injuries as well as for physical injuries is available through the courts through a civil lawsuit, and you may be wondering when to seek damages through personal injury lawyers.
