Will My Personal Injury Case Go to Trial?
Whether or not your case goes to trial depends on several factors, including the complexity of the case, the amount of evidence available, and the willingness of the parties to negotiate a settlement. Even though settlements result in faster resolutions, a case will go to trial if the parties can’t agree on the compensation amount or the defendant doesn’t acknowledge liability.
The decision to go to trial shouldn’t be taken lightly, as it involves considerable risk and uncertainty. However, a skilled Waldorf personal injury attorney with Baldwin, Briscoe & Steinmetz will present your case in the most compelling way possible to give you the best chance of a favorable outcome.
What is My Personal Injury Case Worth?
The value of a personal injury case is influenced by many factors, with the nature and extent of the injuries among the most important. Generally, the worse an injury, the higher the compensation due to increased medical costs, longer recovery times, and the impact on the victim’s quality of life. A skilled Waldorf personal injury attorney knows how to calculate the true cost of medical treatment, rehabilitation, and any future medical care necessary.
Another critical factor in determining the value of a personal injury case is the degree of pain and suffering the victim experiences. This is often referred to as non-economic damages and includes compensation for physical discomfort and emotional distress. The calculation for pain and suffering is subjective. It varies widely, depending mainly on the severity of the injury and its long-term effects on the individual’s daily life and mental health. Other key factors include:
Each personal injury case involves distinct circumstances — ranging from the specifics of the accident, the severity and impact of injuries on the victim’s life, to the legal complexities surrounding the case. An attorney with a deep understanding that no two cases are the same will tailor their approach to highlight your case’s specific damages and challenges. They’ll work to negotiate a fair settlement that genuinely reflects your losses.
