How much is my car accident worth?

The value of a car accident case or wreck with a motorcycle or pickup is always a difficult question. There is no average value. Case values for car accidents change from urban to rural areas because of state laws, jury pools, cultural differences. As a general rule cases are usually worth less in small towns than in big cities.

We settle cases all the time for policy limits of $100,000 and more. In many cases we have results going as high as $9 million dollars. When a business vehicle or trucking company caused an accident, and you have severe injuries, the results are usually much higher and can easily reach one million dollars or more.

There are different factors that make a case worth more or less. The important facts that we look at to determine the value of a car accident case include:

• The place and location where your accident happened.
• The type of injuries you have.
• Whether your injuries are minor or severe.
• The length of time it takes to recover from your injuries.
• Whether your accident injuries are temporary or permanent.
• Whether you lost time from work and how long you are off.
• Whether you have scarring or disfigurement.
• Whether you have surgery or Whether you had preexisting medical injuries, or this is a firm time new direct injury caused only from this car wreck.repeat surgeries.

• Whether you need vocational retraining to return to work or permanently cannot work again.
• Whether you have any paralysis, numbness, or tingling.
• The total amount of past and future medical bills.
• Whether you had preexisting medical injuries, or this is a firm time new direct injury caused only from this car wreck.
• Whether you have severe pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life and mental anguish.
• The effect on your life includes whether you have long term pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life or loss of bodily functions.
• Whether you lose a limb and need lifetime prosthetics to help you carry out normal functions of life.
