What is the range of damages for a woman who sustained a fractured pelvis due to a breakdown in her marriage?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Weiss-Hawkins v. Hawkins, 2015 BCSC 2399 (CanLII):

But there remains the question of prospective support, to which I consider the claimant to be entitled on both compensatory and non-compensatory principles. These principles are reviewed in a decision of our Court of Appeal called Chutter v. Chutter, 2008 BCCA 507 at paras. 45 to 61. In the present case, the compensatory aspect of recovery has to do with the claimant’s role within the marriage and the economic downturn in her life which, in my view, is directly attributable to the breakdown of her marriage, while the main feature of non-compensatory entitlement is what I consider to be the claimant’s permanent partial disability from full-time employment.
