Frequently Asked Questions for Palm Beach Accident Lawyers

Q: Is there a typical settlement amount for a personal injury case?

A: There is no “typical” settlement amount for a personal injury case. The reasonable amount for settlement is determined by a number of factors which are unique to each injured person. These factors include: the amount of reasonable and necessary medical bills; the amount of any wage loss caused by the injuries; the nature and extent of the injuries; whether the injuries are permanent; and the probable need/cost of additional and necessary medical treatment in the future. Although there is no set amount, an experienced personal injury lawyer will be able to advise what would be a reasonable settlement once those factors are known.
