What losses can I claim in a civil court case?

Dear Sir/Madam,

If I file a civil court case, will the judge only consider the lost amount, or will they also consider extra losses such as legal fees, court fees, loss of income, and fines by the bank?

Dear questioner,

Compensation covers many elements including actual loss, loss of income, court fees, and any other actual damages (such as bank fines directly caused by the subject action).

However, to obtain compensation for all of the above-mentioned elements, the plaintiff must claim them, clearly define them by assigning figures to each, and prove them with clear and acceptable evidence.

For more information, please contact us on WhatsApp.

It can work depending on the nature of the case.

We can make the request for all the expenses. But it's the discretion of the judge to award it or not.
