How to calculate pain and suffering? This is a difficult and controversial question. If you're in a car accident, the insurance company wants a written document that must receive all claims against the person that your damages and injuries caused releases. In order to release the insurance
Adjustment must be compensated enough.
You have the right to compensation for special damages (medical expenses, lost wages, medical, etc.) and general damages (pain and suffering, loss of consortium,physiological injury, etc.) Most of the time, the calculation of special damages is not very difficult and there is much debate about the value of medical expenses, lost wages, medical expenses and other. You can send all your income. However, the calculation of general damages, pain and suffering can be very difficult.
How much is your headache is worth? Depends who you ask. If you ask the insurance adjuster, they will tell you about $ 5. If I ask you, then it isprobably worth much more than that.
Personal injury lawyers take advantage of the medical expenses or any "special damages" as a way to calculate damages in general. Some medical bills are multiplying by two, three or even four times (depending on the
Jurisdiction). This is just a rule of thumb. The insurance adjuster is fought and tell you that this is not an accurate way to calculate the pain and suffering. There are laws that give you a formula to calculate the value of isInjury.
Simply multiplying the medical bills not give an exact number. It could be a hit with medical expenses of $ 2,000, but the pain and suffering are worth much more than three or even four times this value. For example, a 15 year old girl who suffers a cut on his face, until a scar from his eye to his chin. Medical expenses for items and cleaning of the wound, perhaps not much, but the psychological damage to grow with such an injury could be muchmore.
Multiplying the medical expenses are not very accurate in assessing the value of pain and suffering, but you can drive. Remember that there are many more than just a "pain and suffering" claim in a car accident. You can ask for loss of consortium, loss of earning capacity, loss of quality of life, etc. For a detailed list and explanation of each type of claim, visit http://www.auto-insurance-claim- advice.com / physical injury claim.html. All these claims can add a lot of money.Most people forget to ask for each of these types of damages. Insurance does not explain the process and just want a release of all claims, including any damages that you forgot to ask or know. Insurance companies do it on purpose. Be aware.
Insurance adjusters are willing to say that the value of a separate injury from the same incident. They are trained to argue that they are billing for neck pain, not the fact that the total lossSettlement
was low. You try to narrow the scope of the Regulation. For example, they will tell you that the fact that the driver that hit was not drunk, because it represents the pain and suffering of the research. Your pain is no more or less, because someone was drunk. If you were at the same speed and hit
the same conditions by a sober person, your pain and suffering would be the (same effect, the same injury) are the same.
The insurance adjuster would be right, the painwould be the same. But remember that what makes the insurance "by purchasing your action" is. It would be the fact that the driver you have to beat, while increasing the value of a jury intoxicated that you lose? I think the answer is probably yes.
To use most of your pain and suffering, the value of your medical expenses, said the circumstances of the accident, the type of injury, similar cases, the jury awards and all the injuries you
can do. Check all argumentsInsurance adjuster ago. Make sure you get a fair deal.
