Pain And Suffering: Ordinarily,
the most "valuable" and "critical" element
of your bodily injury claim is the right to compensation
for physical pain and mental anguish you have suffered and
will endure in the future because of your accident injury
or abuse. These general damages are in addition to and may
be far more than the amount of your lost earnings and medical
expenses. Click
