 Pain And Suffering: Ordinarily, 
                      the most "valuable" and "critical" element 
                      of your bodily injury claim is the right to compensation 
                      for physical pain and mental anguish you have suffered and 
                      will endure in the future because of your accident injury 
                      or abuse. These general damages are in addition to and may 
                      be far more than the amount of your lost earnings and medical 
                      expenses. Click
