Did he injure you intentionally or negligently? If so, of course you can. Why do you ask?

You can sue him. Whether you'll win is another issue. I won't attempt to predict here whether you have a good chance of winning or not. But if you do plan to sue him you'll need to document the damages you've suffered as a result of your injury. That would include the lost wages that you've mentioned here. That would also include other expenses resulting from this injury, such as medical fees, attorney fees if applicable and any other expenditures that occurred because of this injury. Be sure to keep meticulous records and document everything carefully. Incidentally, have you consulted with an attorney? You'd be wise to do so if you haven't. Contact your local Bar Association's Lawyer Referral Service and tell them you need to consult with an experienced Personal Injury Attorney. You'll also need to prove that the injury was actually his fault. I'm not saying it isn't but you'll have the burden of demonstrating that it is.
