Compensation for Boca Raton Truck Accident Injuries

In a successful Boca Raton truck accident case, you can generally recover economic and non-economic damages, and in rare cases, you may also be able to recover punitive damages.
Economic and non-economic damages aim to compensate the injury victim for their losses. The purpose of punitive damages is to punish the wrongdoer and deter similar behavior in the future.
