How Do I Calculate the Value of My Claim?
Following an injury sustained in Glastonbury, CT, you may wonder how much your personal injury claim is worth. When it comes to a Glastonbury personal injury lawyer assigning value to your claim, there are a number of factors involved. You must be able to determine the economic and non-economic damages suffered. These types of damages differ and can sometimes be difficult to determine without the help of an experienced Glastonbury, CT personal injury attorney. Below, our personal injury attorneys have broken down the two categories of damages.
Economic Damages
Additional damages and costs that can be recovered after a car accident case include economic losses, such future expenses, medical treatment such as medical bills, lost wages, and any other out-of-pocket expense. These costs can be fairly simple to calculate being that you and attorneys can place monetary value on them.
Non-Economic Damages
On the other hand, there are the noneconomic damages, which can be more difficult to calculate. Some examples of non-economic damages include: mental anguish, physical pain, inconvenience, lost income and other lost wages,, and other intangible harms and losses of life that have been caused by the accident or negligence.
Proving Fault in My Personal Injury Case
If you’ve suffered a serious personal injury before, you know how difficult it can be to prove the other party was at fault. We’ve broken down some key points you need to provide in court in order to prove fault by other parties in your personal injury case.
Was a Duty of Care Breached?
In personal injury claims and physical injury claims, you need to prove:
the other party had a duty to keep you safe;
the proper actions were not made to keep you safe;
those actions were the cause or closely linked to your injuries; and
you did indeed suffer losses or damages.
These points can oftentimes be difficult to prove on your own without an injury lawyer. You may be overwhelmed with recovery, therapy, sorting through medical bills, and trying to figure out getting back to work. This is where the assistance of a qualified personal injury attorney in Glastonbury can help you establish these points and build a strong case.
How Does Comparative Negligence Affect My Settlement?
Comparative negligence allows you to receive compensation even when you may be partially to blame for the incident. In many states, if you are 75% at fault for the incident you could only receive 25% of the total compensation you could have received.
In Glastonbury, CT and other areas in Connecticut, it’s referred to as “modified” comparative fault or negligence. If you are found 50% or more at fault for the incident you cannot recover anything for your personal injury.
For example, if you are riding your bike to work and run a red light and are hit by an oncoming, speeding vehicle, you are partially at fault for running the light. In this scenario, you are injured but could still recover compensation for catastrophic injury because the driver was driving over the speed limit. However, if you were injured and were found to be more than 50% at fault for the incident you wouldn’t be able to recover compensation or punitive damages for your personal injury.
Common Types of Personal Injuries
Personal injuries vary depending on the type of accident. However, in many cases, the personal injury sustained can be similar and vary in degree of severity. Some of these commonly seen injuries are: broken bones; spinal cord injuries; neck injuries; traumatic brain injuries (TBI); burns; lacerations; herniated discs; sprained or torn ligaments and tendons; and more. Our personal injury attorney in Connecticut is prepared to be your advocate in battling for the compensation you deserve following your accident.
Personal Injury FAQs
This question varies for every claim. Some claims can be handled in a matter of months through skilled and detailed negotiations with the other parties and their insurance company. Other claims may take longer than a few months and can even end up going to court to receive a settlement. More often than not, settlements can be reached outside the court and can result in full and fair compensation.
Following an accident, you may wonder what steps you should take to receive full and fair compensation for your losses. Any bills you receive as a result of your accident, you should keep a detailed record of. This will help you put a monetary value on the economic damages you suffered from the incident. In many cases, you may need to calculate how much the non-economic damages cost you as well. These tend to be more difficult to calculate and our experienced Connecticut personal injury attorney can help you calculate those values to maximize your compensation.
Following an incident, your first thought may not be to get pictures, videos, and witness statements as soon as you can. If you need assistance in obtaining these items, our experienced personal injury attorneys can help investigate the scene of the accident. We can help take photos, videos, and gather witness statements to build a strong defense in protecting your rights.
With every claim being different, it can sometimes be difficult to assign value or worth to your claim. There are a number of factors involved in calculating the value of your claim that an experienced Glastonbury personal injury attorney can assist with. It’s crucial to keep detailed record of your costs post-accident so you are able to better assign value to your claim and maximize your compensation.
Insurance companies will do all they can to save as much money as they can. Oftentimes following an accident, the other party’s insurance company may contact you and try to speak with you regarding the accident. It’s important you do not divulge more information than your name and contact information. Sometimes, these calls are intended to catch you off-guard and provide information that could be used to lessen the amount of your settlement. Let them know that you are working with an attorney and will be in contact with them for any questions, information, and other matters relating to the accident. The first settlement usually is not the maximum amount you can recover. By working with an attorney, you may be able to recover more than the initial settlement offer from an insurance company. You should not accept an initial settlement without speaking with an experienced attorney about your claim.
