Impact in New Hampshire
In New Hampshire, prejudgment interest on a monetary judgment is set at 10% per year under N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 336:1. This statute establishes the annual rate that applies to damages from the date the cause of action accrues until the date judgment is entered. The interest is calculated on the principal amount of the award, and the statute provides no exceptions or alternative rates for different claim types. The worked example below demonstrates how the 10% rate is applied over time using a straightforward accrual formula. For a precise estimate of prejudgment interest in a specific case, the DocketMath calculator uses the statutory rate and the relevant time period to compute the result.
