Calculation of Damages from Personal Injury, Wrongful Death, and Employment Discrimination, Practice Aid 98-2

Civil litigation involving personal damages from personal injury, wrongful death, and employment discrimination often requires financial calculations. Practice Aid 98-2 discusses the types of engagements, the engagement scope and acceptance considerations, the types of damages, general approaches to damage estimation, and various methods of damage calculation used in these cases.

It explores damage calculation taking into consideration such factors as life and worklife expectancy, past losses versus future losses, lost earnings, fringe benefits, household services, medical rehabilitation costs, personal consumption, inflation and growth factors, discounting of losses to present value, and more. This nonauthoritative guide also includes case studies on personal injury damages, employment discrimination damages and wrongful death damages.
