Every personal injury attorney gets asked this question, and it’s a good one. After reviewing the facts of your case, an experienced attorney will be able to put a rough value on the case based on the nature of your injuries, who was at fault, the outcomes of cases similar to yours, and all of your losses.
The attorney should also explain how various factors — such as the evidence, preexisting medical issues, and the risk of losing at trial — could affect the maximum compensation you could receive in a settlement or verdict. Beware of attorneys who promise that you will receive compensation far above the financial losses you already know you have incurred.
