There are two types of damages that can be claimed for – general damages and special damages.

General Damages

These cover non-financial losses and most commonly relate to physical or psychological injuries that have been sustained in an accident that wasn’t your fault.  General damages include pain and suffering, loss of amenity and loss of congenial employment.

Special Damages

Special damages are the financial losses and expenses that arise as a result of the injury and include loss of earnings, travel expenses, medical expenses, care costs, motor insurance excess and cost of damage to property.
