These are known as economic and non-economic damages.
The former covers things like medical bills and lost earnings, while the latter is a way to compensate for things that are more intangible like suffering and pain.

Comparative Fault
A system called comparative fault or contributory negligence determines the amount of fault that an injured person could be accountable for a car crash. It's a key issue in a number of cases, and something that your attorney might have to prove.
The majority of states have some kind of a comparative fault rule, which permits victims to pursue compensation even if they are a part of the blame for an accident. But the amount of their settlement will be lowered by the degree of fault. For example when a jury will award you $100,000 for injuries, but concludes that you're 40 percent in the wrong, you'd receive only $60,000.
However, the law is much more complex than that, as there are two distinct forms of modified rules of comparative fault. The one is known as the 50% bar rule, which prevents an injured party from claiming damages when they are more 50 percent at fault. This is the practice of several states, including Colorado and automobile Utah. Another variant, referred to as pure comparative negligence, permits victims to claim damages if they're found to be 99 percent at fault.
Statute of Limitations
In the majority of instances, a person injured in a car accident can sue. However, these lawsuits must, be filed within a certain timeframe of limitations or the victim's claim will be forever barred.
The statute of limitations does not have anything to determine whether or not the insurer of the defendant will settle it, and has everything to do with the initial triggering event in the case-the incident or accident that led to the injury. Calculating the exact time that the clock begins to tick is crucial to ensure compliance with this important rule.
