Should I use a personal injury calculator to determine my case value?

Video Transcript

I have heard of people using a personal injury calculator that they see on the internet. I do not recommend that. I do not quite understand how a personal injury calculator is truly going to evaluate a person that I would look at and I can tell that you have got certain types of injuries and certain types of damage to you. What a personal injury calculator will do is they will want to put in a few factors associated with any particular individual and their injuries. Well, those few factors are minuscule compared to all the factors that we look at, so while that may be a good initial first step, it may create expectations that are unwarranted, or you may have a situation where the personal injury calculator greatly devalues and gives you an expectation that is much lower than what you could get if you had an experienced attorney behind your case and behind you evaluating all factors of your case.

How Much is My Case Worth?

This is an extremely difficult question to answer. The value of a case is based on a wide range of criteria including:

The extent of your injuries
Your inability to work / loss of earnings capacity
Your age
Past medical bills
Future medical bills
Pain and Suffering
Whether injuries are temporary or permanent
The insurance coverage of the other party
The identity and financial condition of the other party
and other factors.

All cases are unique and we assess them on a case-by-case basis.

How Do I Know if I Have a Case?

To have a personal injury case, you must have suffered an injury, and that injury had to be at least partially the fault of another. The injury can be physical or non-physical depending upon the case and the basis of the lawsuit. Invasion of privacy, assault, infliction of emotional distress or an attack on your reputation are examples of injuries that are non-physical.

How Long Will My Lawsuit Take?

Some cases settle within weeks, while others require litigation and can take over a year to reach completion.
