The Importance of Lost Earnings Calculations
After someone is injured, becomes ill, or loses their life in an accident, litigation often follows. Once liability is established, lost earnings is a key component of the injured party’s damage claim. Recently, former Flyers trainers filed suit, alleging chemicals used in the operation of the Zamboni caused their illnesses. In Florida, the parents of a teen who died after falling from an amusement park ride this spring have filed suit.
