Personal Injury FAQ

How is a personal injury settlement calculated?

Most settlements use the multiplier method: add up economic damages (medical bills + lost wages + future care costs), then multiply by 1.5-5x to account for pain and suffering. Comparative negligence rules reduce the award by your percentage of fault.

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit?

Statutes of limitations for personal injury range from 1 year (Kentucky, Tennessee) to 6 years (Maine, North Dakota). Most states allow 2-3 years from the date of injury. Claims against government entities often have shorter windows.

What is a medical lien?

A medical lien gives a healthcare provider a legal claim on your settlement to recover unpaid medical bills. Hospitals, health insurers, Medicare, and Medicaid can assert liens. Lien amounts are negotiated as part of the settlement process.

Does workers comp cover all injuries at work?

Workers comp covers injuries arising out of and in the course of employment. Benefits include medical coverage and wage replacement, typically 66.67% of average weekly wage. Commute injuries and intentional self-harm are generally excluded.
