Damages: An Overview. Damages, in a legal sense, is the sum of money the law imposes for a breach of some duty or violation of some right. Generally, there are two types of damages: compensatory and punitive. (The term damages typically includes both categories, but the term, actual damages is synonymous with compensatory damages, and excludes punitive damages.) Compensatory damages, like the name suggests, are intended to compensate the injured party for loss or injury.
