Injury Calculator in Personal Injury Settlements?

Personal injury victims want a calculator or formula to determine what their settlement should be. "How much is my case worth?" seems like a fair question. The human brain is adverse to uncertainty. In lab experiments, our wiring in this regard is underscored: we prefer physical pain to uncertainty.

Regrettably, there is no formula or calculator that shows how much money you will get in your accident case. The real world is too complex for a personal injury settlement calculator. A car accident case is worth what a judge or jury would give the injury victim.

That said, below are some links that can help you determine the value of your case by giving you information both on how claims are valued and what juries have awarded or settlements that have occurred for injuries similar to yours.
