Another method of measuring the extent of your suffering and pain is by simply granting a set amount each day that you suffer due to your injury. This is often called the per diem method. In either type of calculation, it is essential to have medical experts verify the amount of pain that you are experiencing and how it has affected your ability to work, socialize, enjoy hobbies and take care of household chores. In addition, it is helpful to have personal journals and testimonies from friends and family members who can confirm your emotional turmoil.

Videos and photos can be extremely useful in proving your suffering to a jury. They can assess the severity of the injuries you've suffered and increase the amount of compensation you receive.

Emotional distress is one of the most difficult injuries to prove. In contrast to a broken arm or a cut the victim doesn't have X-rays that can be compared to or bills to show how much the victim suffered. This is why it's crucial that those who suffer injuries record all of their suffering and pain. They should keep a journal of their feelings and be sure to share it with their lawyer to ensure that they can present the most complete picture to an insurance adjuster or in trial.

The physical symptoms of emotional distress may be easier to spot. The signs of emotional distress can be identified by physical signs such as headaches, firm cognitive impairments and ulcers. The duration of time a person has suffered from these symptoms is crucial. The longer the time has been passed, the more convincing the case. Alongside these factors testimony from a victim, as well as the report of a psychologist or doctor can be reliable pieces of evidence in a case of emotional distress.

Damages resulting from emotional distress are assessed in a similar manner to the ones for medical expenses and loss of income. Lawyers gather invoices, receipts and other documents from doctors and insurance companies and then calculate the expenses that have already been incurred and how they will continue in the future. This information is then presented to a judge and jury who decide the amount the victim will be awarded for emotional distress.
