Personal Injury Compensation: How Much Is My Case Worth?
One of the questions I get asked most is what is my personal injury case worth? Each case is different and it’s impossible to put a specific dollar figure for any claim. Here are several factors that an experienced lawyer considers when evaluating a case. If a lawyer tells you over the phone or the internet about what your case is worth, that is a big red flag. Always consult with an attorney face to face so that he or she may review all evidence and details of your case. The lawyer may take into consideration:
- The extent of your injuries
- The extent of medical treatment needed, including future medical expenses
- If a loss of wages has occurred
- The ability of the injured person to return to work
- Are there catastrophic injuries such as spinal cord, brain, back and neck injuries
- What is the level of pain and suffering experienced
- The amount of insurance coverage available

Most lawyers charge half of the settlement or verdict and any expenses incurred over the course of the case.
