New Jersey Workplace Harassment: Pain and Suffering

Attorney Kevin Costello

Pain and suffering damages, we also call them legal damages are essentially a way of compensating you for your emotional distress. And by emotional distress I don’t necessarily mean that you have to have a doctor.

In our state we don’t require people to have medical treatment in order to collect damages for pain and suffering. And the reason for that is because the public policies that underlie our laws in New Jersey consider employment rights to be civil rights. And anyone who is the victim of a civil rights violation is presumed to suffer to some degree.

So your embarrassment, your upset, your anger, your dignity as a person, these things have value and the only way we know so far in the law to compensate someone in the loss of these things is with money damages.
