Personal Injury Compensation: What Are Your
Damages?
Your
personal injury compensation, even when factoring in things like pain
and suffering settlements and punitive damages, is usually
directly related to your
past, present and future medical bills.
How much do
YOU deserve?
Calculating the total amount of your damages is never easy. It often
requires putting
a price on things that don’t carry a monetary value.
Even
then, your math won’t likely match up with the insurance company's
math. Your job is to get paid as much as you can, and theirs is to pay
as little as they can.
