Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is this injury settlement calculator?
This calculator provides a rough estimate based on common settlement formulas. Actual settlements depend on many factors including liability, insurance limits, jurisdiction, and attorney negotiation. Use this as a starting point, not a guarantee.
What is the pain and suffering multiplier?
Insurance companies often calculate pain and suffering by multiplying medical bills by a factor of 1-5x. Minor injuries typically use a lower multiplier (1-2x), while severe injuries may warrant a higher multiplier (3-5x).
Should I accept the insurance company's first offer?
First offers from insurance companies are often lower than the actual value of your claim. Consulting with a personal injury attorney before accepting any offer is generally advisable.
Need a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Contact a personal injury lawyer as soon as possible after an accident or injury. Most states have a statute of limitations of 2-3 years, and evidence can be lost over time. Many personal injury attorneys offer free initial consultations and work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing unless you win.
