Loss of Earning Capacity Due to a Car Accident


You are entitled to recover for loss of earning capacity as a result of injuries due to a car accident.
Earning capacity is your physical ability to work not just now but in the future.  Car accident injuries often have a major impact on your health and overall ability to enjoy your daily life.  These injuries also affect your ability to work.

Loss of earning capacity is especially important in cases where the auto accident injuries result in permanent physical bodily injuries.  In order to make a claim for loss of earning capacity, it may be necessary for your car accident lawyer to consult with a doctor, vocational rehabilitation or other expert to determine what percentage of your earning ability was reduced by the injuries from the accident.  Once this is determined, that information and determine how much you can recover for loss of earning capacity.  It is important to keep in mind that hiring experts such as vocational rehabilitation experts or economists are best left to an experienced car accident lawyer.
