Am I Able to Recover Money for Lost Wages?
If an
injury has made it difficult or impossible for you to work or return to work,
then you may be concerned about how you are going to cover your lost income
caused by your injury. After an injury occurs, the injured person often
has the legal right to make a claim for lost income. A loss of income
can occur when the injured person misses some days of work and then returns
to work. Loss of income, including loss of capacity to earn income, also
refers to situations in which the injured person is permanently unable
to work. In other situations, an injury may the injured person's ability
to return to the type of work or the number of hours worked per week before
the injury occurred. In each situation, the person has lost income due
to an injury.
