Types of Compensable Damages
Italian law distinguishes between different categories of compensable damages, each requiring specific and thorough evaluation:
- Property damage: includes all economic losses suffered, such as medical expenses, lost earnings, or damage to physical assets;
- Non-pecuniary damage: relates to injuries of a moral or biological nature, such as physical, psychological suffering, or damage to reputation;
- Future damage: covers harmful consequences that will continue to manifest over time, such as permanent work incapacity.
