Lost Income: Compensation for wages lost due to your inability to work, as well as future earnings if your injuries prevent you from returning to work at full capacity.
Pain and Suffering: Compensation for the physical pain and emotional distress caused by your injuries, including anxiety, depression, and a diminished quality of life.
Property Damage: If your vehicle or other personal property was damaged, you may be entitled to repair or replacement costs.

What to Do After an Accident in Los Angeles
The actions you take after an accident can greatly impact the outcome of your personal injury claim. Here are important steps to protect your rights:
- Seek Medical Attention: Your health is the top priority. Seek medical care immediately, even if your injuries seem minor. A medical evaluation will help document your injuries and form the basis of your claim.
- Document the Scene: If you are able, take photos of the accident scene, your injuries, and any property damage. Get the contact information of witnesses, as their statements can be invaluable for your case.
- Report the Accident: File an official report based on the type of accident. For car accidents, call the police. If the accident occurred on someone else’s property, report it to the property owner or manager.
