There is no precise method to determine how much a personal injury case is worth. Each case is different but some factors can be used to assess a potential value of a personal injury case. Some common factors are:
- Does the wrongdoer or negligent party accept responsiblity for the accident and your injuries?
- What type of injuries did you sustain? Are the injuries permanent? Is surgery needed?
- Did you have medical problems in the same part of your body before the accident? Are there pre-existing medical conditions?
- Did you miss time from work? Can you return to work? Do you need training to return to work?
- Will you need future medical care for your injuries?
- Will expert witnesses be needed to discuss your injuries, need for future medical care or explain why you need training to return to work or why you cannot return to work?
- Will you make a credible witness? Are you exaggerating your injuries? Do you have criminal convictions? Have you filed numerous personal injury claims?
- Will the jury believe your side of the story?
- Is there insurance coverage available to compensate you for your claim and if not, does the other party have money available to compensate you?
