Is anxiety considered personal injury?

In: Insurance [Edit categories]

Answer:

That issue sometimes arises in matters that require, by law, a permanent injury in order to recover damages for "pain and suffering". Many states employ the "impact rule" which requires a physical impact before one is entitled to recover damages for anxiety (by whatever name called).
