Can I sue him for something other than medical bills and my car like emotional distress?

James Peirce Kelaher
Answered by attorney James Peirce Kelaher (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Kelaher Law Offices, P.A.
In Florida, you cannot recover non-economic damages unless you have sustained a permanent injury, impairment or scarring in the accident. If you were not injured, then you cannot recover. In Florida, if a driver is drunk you can sue him for punitive damages, which are the damages above compensatory damages. Your compensatory damages are limited to the monies for medical bills and lost wages that your PIP insurance on your care does not pay. His insurance will not cover punitive damages, so you might be able to get him to voluntarily pay money above and beyond the compensatory, otherwise you will have to get a verdict, and a judgment, against the guy, for punitive damages. In Florida, as well, he cannot bankrupt punitive damages.
