When evaluating the amount of compensation our clients is entitled there are several different factors. First and foremost, when you are injured in a car accident you should always first seek medical treatment. There are many cases in which you think you may be fine, but quite the contrary. The amount of medical treatment you receive for your injuries is a good indication of how severity of your injury. Most insurance companies have a grade that they use to gage how serious the accident was and what type of settlement you may be entitled too. There are three variations; Slight, moderate and severe. Slight is generally under $3,000 dollars of medical expenses, moderate is $3,000 to $5,000 and severe tends to be over $5,000. Although not all insurances companies rate the same, this is generally a pretty good rule of thumb. The person that has received slight injury is probably going to get less than the victim that has received severe injuries.
When you have been involved in a car accident and are being treated, make sure you always follow your doctors advice. Do not miss treatments and stay within his or her rehabilitation program. Make sure when visiting a doctor you let them know the locations of the pain, the severity of the pain and find out what or what not you are able to do. There are cases in which we represent individuals that lose jobs or wages because they can’t perform their day to day tasks. In this event, you will need to be fairly compensated for these sorts of damages.
No matter the situation you should always consult a doctor after an automobile or other type of motor vehicle accident.
