What is the value of my Iowa personal injury claim? (Part B)

The value of your Iowa personal injury claim may also include what is known as loss of consortium. This is related to the loss of benefits when a spouse is injured. For instance, the uninjured spouse may be able to recover these damages if the injured spouse was responsible for caring for the children. It could also include a loss of companionship, affection and household help.

Another factor that affects the value of an Iowa personal injury claim is the amount of property damage that resulted from your accident. This is because you may face repair or replacement costs for your vehicle, not to mention rental car costs during that time frame.

Determining fault in a car accident in Iowa is another method used to determine the value of your Iowa personal injury claim. Because Iowa practices what is known as a form of comparative negligence, the percentage of fault that is assigned to you will reduce the value of your claim.
