🔍 What is Emotional Distress?
Emotional distress is considered 'noneconomic damage,' a complex tapestry woven from anxiety, depression, grief, and more, under the broader umbrella of pain and suffering. These injuries to your mental health can arise from someone’s intentional misconduct or simple negligence.
✨ Two Key Types of Emotional Distress Claims:
• Negligent Infliction: Like the shock and lasting anxiety after witnessing a preventable tragic incident at work.
• Intentional Infliction: Stemming from actions filled with intent, directly targeting your peace of mind.
In Washington State, the legal journey for these claims can be rare and intricate.
