How Much Should I Sue for Pain and Suffering?

Pain and suffering is an important part of your overall compensation following a personal injury accident. Different than more tangible expenses like medical bills and missed work, your pain and suffering compensation is intended to be a financial reflection of the overall impact of the accident. Unless it is a medical malpractice case, there is no limit to how much you can get for pain and suffering and the more devastating the accident, the more pain and suffering you should get.
