Then Elijah slammed THAT DOOR so hard because she was slamming her big body against his on my finger It's fractured, tendons and muscle rip
A: You can most certainly seek compensation for pain and suffering in addition to other damages. The real question that needs to be explored is whether or not there will be a path to recovery. Specifically, are the individuals we are seeking recovery from insured? Do they have assets from which a judgment can be satisfied?
