How do I prove my medical expenses in a catastrophic injury case?
To prove your medical expenses in a catastrophic injury case in California you must provide evidence that the expenses are necessary and related to the injury. In most cases, this will require you to provide copies of medical bills for treatment related to the injury, such as physical therapy, prescriptions, and medical equipment. Additionally, you must also provide evidence that you have paid for those expenses. This can come in the form of copies of checks, bank statements, or receipts. In addition to medical treatment, you may also be able to receive compensation for lost wages due to an inability to work due to the injury.
