You may hear the insurance company refer to lost wages. Lost wages are a form of economic damages. Economic damages cover financial losses incurred because of a car accident.
Many accident victims are unable to work after a motor vehicle accident. If this describes you, you may be entitled to compensation for your lost wages.
However, lost income includes more than just wages. A loss of income may include:
Recovering compensation for lost wages after a car accident should not be complicated. However, many insurance companies try to avoid paying full compensation for lost wages.
The claims adjuster may argue that your employer reimbursed you for lost wages, so you cannot include those amounts in your accident claim. That is not true.
The insurance company may also argue that your medical records do not show a permanent impairment that will reduce your future income. It may tell you that you are not entitled to compensation for commission or bonuses, but these allegations might not be true either.
If you earn a salary, calculating your lost income should be simple. You simply add up how much money you would have earned had you been able to work. If you would have received a bonus or paid time off, your employer needs to put that in writing so you can include it in your claim.
However, if you earn overtime wages, commissions, and other unpredictable income, calculating your lost income can be more challenging. Also, if the accident resulted in an impairment, you may be entitled to future lost wages or reductions in earning capacity.
In these cases, you may need to retain a medical expert to prove that you cannot work. You may also need to hire a financial expert to calculate how much income you would have earned in the future based on your age, occupation, education, experience, life expectancy, and market conditions.
