In Raleigh, if you get injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be able to recover both economic and non-economic damages. 

Let’s start with economic damages. 

These are tangible, quantifiable losses that result from a motorcycle accident. Examples include but are not limited to:

• Medical expenses, covering hospital bills, surgeries, medication, and any necessary rehabilitation. 
• Property damage compensation, which accounts for the repair or replacement costs of the damaged motorcycle. 
• Lost wages due to time off work during recovery or disability, and future earning capacity if the injuries lead to a long-term impact on employment.

Now, on to non-economic damages.

These are more subjective and involve intangible losses that don’t usually have a specific dollar value. Examples include:

• Pain and suffering, which covers the physical and emotional distress experienced due to the accident and subsequent injuries. 
• Emotional distress, meant to compensate you for the psychological trauma, anxiety, and other mental health issues resulting from the accident. 
• Loss of enjoyment of life, which helps compensate you for 
• Loss of consortium, referring to the impact on personal relationships, including the inability to enjoy companionship or maintain a normal marital relationship.

In some cases, plaintiffs may be awarded punitive damages (only if the case goes to court), designed to punish the at-fault party for particularly reckless or egregious behavior that led to the accident. Unlike economic and non-economic damages, punitive damages are not focused on compensating the victim but on deterring similar conduct in the future.

At Morgan and Morgan, we believe that your rights are non-negotiable, and so is our dedication to securing them. That explains why we’ve been able to recover over $20 billion for more than 500,000 injury victims, including those involved in motorcycle accidents.
