Compensatory and Punitive Employment Damages

In most cases, clients are at the very least, pursuing compensatory employment damages against an employer. These damages are restitution that is designed, as the name implies, to compensate for losses incurred by a client, such as unpaid work in wage and hour claims or lost wages in a wrongful termination. Most commonly, compensatory damages include:

• Economic Damages — such as lost income
• Non-Economic Damages — compensation for intangible factors including embarrassment, humiliation, anxiety, stress, or lost job opportunities.
• Litigation Expenses — case costs and attorneys fees.

Punitive damages are designed to be penalties to make an example of companies that take part in particularly egregious actions. Not all cases are eligible to pursue punitive damages, but particularly in cases involving significant racial discrimination or sexual harassment where the defendant's conduct is oppressive or malicious, punitive damages may be added to punish parties involved in the action.
