Peachtree City, Georgia -

Peachtree City, GA - Helping The Hurt, a leading personal injury law firm in Georgia, has published a comprehensive article titled "What Is Considered Pain And Suffering?" This in-depth guide aims to clarify the often misunderstood concept of pain and suffering in personal injury cases, providing valuable insights for accident victims.

The article addresses the two main types of damages in personal injury cases: economic and non-economic. While economic damages cover tangible losses like medical bills and lost wages, non-economic damages, often referred to as pain and suffering, encompass the emotional and psychological impact of an injury.

Leonard Smith, a representative from Helping The Hurt, stated, "Many accident victims focus solely on their financial losses. Our goal with this article is to shed light on the equally important aspect of pain and suffering, ensuring our clients understand the full scope of compensation they may be entitled to."

The guide breaks down pain and suffering into two categories:

Physical Pain and Suffering: This includes immediate and ongoing physical discomfort resulting from injuries such as burns, broken bones, and chronic pain.

Emotional Pain and Suffering: This covers psychological trauma like stress, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Helping The Hurt's article also introduces the concept of "loss of consortium," a standalone claim that can be brought by the spouse or family member of a person severely injured or killed due to negligence.

To support pain and suffering claims, the article emphasizes the importance of proper documentation. Evidence may include: Doctor's notes, Medical records, Photographs, Personal journals, and/or Notes from therapists or mental health counselors.

The guide provides real-world examples to illustrate how pain and suffering manifest in personal injury cases. For instance, a car accident victim suffering from depression and anger issues due to traumatic brain injuries may be entitled to compensation for mental pain and suffering.

Helping The Hurt's article also delves into the methods used to calculate pain and suffering awards:

The Multiplier Method: Actual damages are multiplied by a number between one and five, depending on the severity of the injury.

The Per Diem Method: A specific dollar amount is assigned to each day from the accident until the victim reaches maximum medical recovery.

The firm stresses the importance of seeking legal advice before accepting any insurance settlement. "Insurance companies often focus on preserving their profits," Leonard Smith explained. "An experienced personal injury attorney can ensure you receive fair compensation for both your economic losses and pain and suffering."

Helping The Hurt's article serves as a valuable resource for personal injury victims in Georgia, offering clear explanations of complex legal concepts. The firm's commitment to educating the public aligns with its mission to provide comprehensive legal support to those in need.

The article concludes by emphasizing the importance of timely action in personal injury cases. In some states, the deadline for filing a suit can be as short as one year. Helping The Hurt encourages accident victims to seek legal counsel promptly to ensure they receive maximum compensation.

Helping The Hurt's team of committed attorneys stands ready to assist accident victims in receiving the pain and suffering compensation they deserve.
