Here's a rundown of the different types of compensatory damages that are common in many personal injury cases:

Medical treatment. A personal injury damages award almost always includes the cost of medical care associated with the accident — reimbursement for treatment you've already received and compensation for the estimated cost of medical care you'll need in the future because of the accident.

Income. You may be entitled to compensation for the accident's impact on your salary and wages — not just income you've already lost but also the money you would have been able to make in the future, were it not for the accident. In personal injury "legalese," a damages award based on future income is usually characterized as compensation for an accident victim's "loss of earning capacity."

Property loss. If any vehicles, clothing, or other items were damaged as a result of the accident, you'll likely be entitled to reimbursement for repairs or compensation for the fair market value of the property that was lost.

Pain and suffering. You may be entitled to compensation for pain and serious discomfort you suffered during the accident and in its aftermath — also for any ongoing pain that can be attributed to the accident.

Emotional distress. Usually linked to more serious accidents, emotional distress damages are meant to compensate a personal injury plaintiff for the psychological impact of an injury — including fear, anxiety, and sleep loss. Some states consider emotional distress as part of any "pain and suffering" damages awarded to a personal injury plaintiff.

Loss of enjoyment. When injuries caused by an accident keep you from enjoying day-to-day pursuits like hobbies, exercise, and other recreational activities, you may be entitled to "loss of enjoyment" damages.
