Serious injuries often affect more than just the injured person. Family members may become caregivers, face emotional strain, or lose companionship and support.
In some cases, family members may be entitled to compensation for these losses. These claims recognize the broader impact injuries can have on a household, including loss of care, guidance, and companionship.
Eligibility depends on the relationship and the extent of the impact. A personal injury lawyer can help determine whether a claim exists and assist with the required evidence.
