Yes. If you displayed characteristic symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and received an official diagnosis, it may be possible to recover compensation for any damages you’ve incurred due to your PTSD. Proving the existence of your PTSD and the value of the associated damages can be challenging without the help of an attorney since insurance companies often dispute psychological injuries. It may be necessary to bring in a psychotherapist and other well-credentialed medical experts to provide testimony.
About Michael Waks
