If you file a personal injury lawsuit in California, you can also seek compensation for emotional distress. In California, "emotional distress" is considered a category of compensatory damages. This means that if you experience emotional or mental trauma as a result of a personal injury, you have the right to seek compensatory damages for that trauma. The Judicial Council of California Civil Jury Instructions ("CACI") defines emotional distress as "suffering, anguish, fright, horror, nervousness, grief, anxiety, worry, shock, humiliation, and shame." Serious emotional distress exists if an ordinary, reasonable person is unable to cope with it. This final part of the definition is critically important because there are many factors that may affect how a jury reacts to this instruction and how an attorney may present the case. For example, children may experience emotional distress in a much different way than adults. https://lnkd.in/gtjnFZJY #NationalGriefAwarenessDay #Grief #EmotionalDistress #PersonalInjury
