Attorneys at Datsopoulos, MacDonald & Lind, P.C. have decades of collective experience in valuing personal injury claims. When you make a personal injury claim after an accident, the case could be resolved in different ways. One way is to settle out of court for an agreed-upon sum. Another way is to sue and let a judge or jury decide what you deserve.
In order to determine whether you should settle – and for how much – you need to know what your personal injury claim is actually worth. This can be difficult to determine. While every personal injury case is different, there are certain things you should be compensated for in a personal injury lawsuit including pain and suffering, hospital, medical bills, and lost income or wages.

Knowing the value of your case is essential to make sure you do not leave money on the table and that you get enough compensation to allow you to rebuild your life after suffering a serious personal injury.
Our attorneys can negotiate with the insurance company. Insurance companies are not looking out for your best interests. They are not trying to make sure you are fairly compensated for all your losses. Insurance companies want to hold on to their money so they can be profitable. They have a team of lawyers and experts who help them do that. This is true both when you are trying to get money from your own insurance company and when you are trying to get money from another driver’s insurer.
You deserve to have a knowledgeable advocate who can deal with the insurance companies on your behalf.
