So if you miss work because of an injury caused by someone else’s negligence, you are probably entitled to compensation for your lost wages.
This includes not just the paychecks that you missed, but also any sick time or PTO that you’ve had to use, and even reduced earning capacity if you can’t return to the same type or the same level of work in the future.
It’s important to document everything that you have regarding your income — including doctor’s notes, pay stubs, and any communications that you’ve had with your employer.
These details help strengthen your personal injury claim and ensure you’re not left carrying the financial burden.
