Punitive damages, which are designed to punish bad behavior could also be a possibility in certain cases.

Damages for future medical treatment

The first is based on measurable losses like the future or past medical expenses. The latter is more difficult to quantify and includes pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment.

This kind of damage is usually based on the testimony of the victim and other witnesses, as well as evidence such as videos, photographs and written reports.
