What is a personal injury settlement?
A personal injury settlement is an agreement between a plaintiff and a defendant to resolve a personal injury case outside of court. Approximately 1 in 3 personal injury cases end in a settlement. The amount of the settlement is typically based on the severity of the injuries, the amount of medical bills, and the projected future costs of the injury. In some cases, the settlement may also include punitive damages, which are designed to punish the defendant for their negligence.
Most personal injury settlements are reached through negotiation between the parties, but some may go to trial if an agreement cannot be reached. Some of the largest personal injury settlements in history have been for medical malpractice, wrongful death, and product liability cases.
How are personal injury settlements calculated?
The amount of a personal injury settlement is calculated by looking at a number of factors. These include the severity of the injury, the amount of medical bills incurred, the amount of lost wages, and the pain and suffering experienced by the victim. In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded.
Who is typically responsible for a personal injury settlement?
There is no one definitive answer to this question, as the responsible party in a personal injury settlement can vary depending on the specific case. However, some of the most common responsible parties in personal injury settlements include insurance companies, the at-fault party’s employer, and the at-fault party themselves.
The outcome of previous cases should not be indicative of future success on your case.
