  • Ambulance and emergency medical service costs,
  • Loss of companionship,
  • Loss of home services, and
  • Loss of wages and benefits.

These damages are a form of compensation that is set to punish the party at-fault for the disregard for human life. One of the most common types of accidents that award punitive damages are cases that involve road rage or driving while intoxicated. With the support of a qualified personal injury attorney, grieving families can recover the compensation they deserve.
