Future Losses in Personal Injury Claims Explained | What You Need to Know?
In Ireland, personal injury compensation can include future losses.
Here's what that means for you:
๐ Future medical expenses โ ongoing treatment, surgeries, medication
๐ Future loss of earnings โ if you can no longer do the same job
๐ Cost of future care โ help at home, nursing, rehabilitation
๐ Loss of future opportunities โ career progression, promotions
These future elements require careful expert evidence โ medical reports projecting your needs, actuarial calculations of financial loss.
It's complex. But it's incredibly important.
Because settling now without accounting for the future can leave you seriously undercompensated for the rest of your life.
