A personal injury case is a civil matter in which legal responsibility for an accident is determined. If a person’s negligence is found to have contributed to the accident, they could be financially liable for harm caused to the injured party. Thus, if you or a loved one were hurt in an accident caused by someone else, you might be entitled to compensation for associated damages.
However, pursuing a claim or a lawsuit can be difficult, as the processes are complex. As the plaintiff, you must prove that the other person was at fault. The steps involved in resolving your case can be daunting and overwhelming, especially when you are trying to heal.
At Aaron Hooper, Attorney at Law, we understand the struggles you might be facing during this difficult time. We also believe negligent parties should be held responsible for the harm they caused, and justice should be served.
That is why we will handle the details of your case, reviewing and analyzing the facts and building a compelling legal strategy. Our Boise personal injury attorney, Aaron Hooper, is prepared to seek fair compensation for accident-related expenses and losses to help you get the care you need for your recovery.

Types of Compensation Available in Personal Injury Cases
Injuries suffered in an accident often require medical care. Depending on the severity of the injuries, treatment can be extensive and lengthy. That means there may be high costs to return your life to somewhat normal.
Additionally, you might be required to stay in the hospital for some time while you heal. And the harm you sustained may limit your mobility, even after you have been released. Therefore, you might need to miss work for an extended period or may not be able to return to the job you did before your accident, causing you to lose out on income.
Taking action against the person responsible for your accident can allow you to obtain compensation to cover your expenses and losses (referred to as damages).
Under Idaho law, two types of damages can be recovered in a personal injury case:
- Economic: These are quantitative monetary expenses and losses. They include medical bills, lost wages, loss of use of property, and accident-related costs paid out of pocket.
- Non-economic: These are subjective losses that do not have a calculable monetary value attached to them. They can include pain and suffering, mental anguish, disability or disfigurement, emotional distress, and loss of companionship.
Although calculating a figure for economic damages may be a matter of pulling up receipts and paystubs, determining non-economic damages can be much more difficult. Many factors are considered when deciding how much compensation to ask for. Our Boise personal injury attorney can ensure that relevant elements are taken into account to seek fair financial recovery.
