Calculating Non Economic Damages

Summary

Non-economic damages in New Jersey are calculated by evaluating factors such as the severity and duration of the injury, its impact on the victims quality of life, and the victims age and health prior to the injury. These damages are often determined by a jury or through negotiation. Negligence per se in New Jersey is based on common law, occurring when a defendant violates a statute designed to protect the public. Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress (IIED) requires conduct that is extremely outrageous, while Negligent Infliction of Emotional Distress (NEID) requires the plaintiff to be in the zone of danger and suffer emotional distress due to the defendants negligence.
