Punitive damages are those sought by a plaintiff who wants to hold the defendant accountable and deter future wrongdoers from acting in the same way.

<h3><u>How do punitive damages work?</u></h3>

In addition to compensatory damages, a defendant who is found guilty of a crime or wrong is also required to pay punitive damages. When compensatory damages, or the money paid to the injured party, are deemed to be insufficient, they are granted.

Punitive damages go above and beyond reimbursing the wronged party. They are intended specifically to punish defendants whose actions are deemed to be willful or grossly negligent. Since they are meant to serve as a warning to prevent repeat offenses, punitive damages are also known as exemplary damages.
