The personal injury lawyers at the Schmidt & Salita Law Team have, collectively, over 70 years of experience in bringing justice to the victims of personal injury cases. They have produced million-dollar settlements and jury verdicts for their clients. They wish to share this information about the value of any personal injury case.
No personal injury claim has any value unless the party that caused the injury was legally at fault. The amount of permanent injury and disability is important. Any injury that results in permanent, life-long disability has far more value than an injury that heals up without permanent disability.
The value of a Minnesota personal injury, the amount of wage and earnings loss, is very important. When the injury causes the victim to miss time from work or employment and there has been a loss of earnings, the amount of wage or earnings loss is typically a very important factor.
The value of a Minnesota personal injury: the amount of medical bills is very important. The amount of medical bills that have been incurred is important. The expected amount of medical bills that are anticipated into the future is also very important.
The value of a Minnesota personal injury case – pain and suffering is an important factor. Pain, suffering, and emotional distress are another factor that enters into the determination of the value of any personal injury claim.
The value of a Minnesota personal injury case – the human factor is important. The ultimate determination of the value of any personal injury claim is that amount that the jury can be expected to award if the case cannot be settled and goes to trial for a jury decision. The “human factor” is very important in jury trials. Does the injured person seem honest and truthful? a deserving person? a likeable person?
Usually, it cannot be accurately determined until the healing process has ended, and the amount of permanent disability can be determined.
