Are there any financial damages that I can receive that are unique to neck injuries?

Usually no; the types of damages that you can receive in injury cases, no matter what the injury, are the same. You will want to have an attorney familiar with neck injury law review your case and advise you as to all your options to receive financial damages. In most auto accidents, you will be able to recover “economic damages” such as lost wages, medical bills, rental car charges and damage to your vehicle or property within your vehicle. You should also be able to recover for “general damages,” such as permanent injury, pain and suffering, and sometimes emotional distress.
