In determining a value for your wrist injury, there are different factors that could affect the amount of compensation you can receive, including:
- Was your broken wrist treated with a cast? And did it properly heal?
- Did you have surgery? Were pins, plates, screws, or rods inserted to align the bones?
- Did the treatment result in a non-union of the bone?
- Was a segment of the bone replaced?
- Did the fracture involve cartilage of the wrist joint?
Surgery is traumatic, especially with the use of screws and other materials that are sometimes required to fix a fracture. Sometimes, people are left with chronic pain and limited mobility, which are other factors that could increase the amount of compensation victims are entitled to recover.
If a property owner’s negligence caused your injuries, you may be entitled to the following damages:
- Past and future medical expenses
- Past and future lost wages
- Past and future pain and suffering
- Permanent scarring or disfigurement
- Loss of function
- Partial or total disability
