How do I Calculate the Value of Pain and Suffering in a Personal Injury Case?

How do I calculate the value of pain and suffering in a personal injury case? This is one of the most common questions I get asked as a personal injury attorney. If you have suffered an injury because of the negligence of another person or entity in California, you normally are able to pursue compensation from the defendant’s insurance company. In order to recover damages, you will need to be able to prove that the defendant is at fault. You will then need to prove that you suffered financial losses.

California law grants people who have been injured because of the negligence of others the right to recover damages for both their economic and noneconomic losses. Your economic losses are normally straightforward since they include such things as your medical expenses and income losses. It may be more difficult for you to prove your noneconomic losses, however. An experienced Los Angeles personal injury attorney may help you to calculate the damages that you have suffered because of your pain and suffering and then help you to recover them.

I have known Steven for some time now and when his services were required he jumped in and took control of my cases. I had two and they were handled with the utmost professionalism and courtesy. He went the extra mile regardless of the bumps in the road. I can not see me using any other attorney and I would recommend him to any of my family and friends. Josie A.

Steven was vital during our most trying time. He was referred by a friend after an accident that involved a family member. While he was critical and lying in the hospital, Steven was kind, patient and knowledgeable about what we were going through. Following our loss, Steven became a tough and aggressive negotiator and made sure that we receive a huge compensation. I would refer Steven in fact, this happened 2 years ago and I still speak highly of his service. Cheryl S.

I must tell anyone, if you need a great attorney, Steve sweat is the guy! I had an awful car accident and had no idea where to turn. He had so much to deal with because my accident was a 4 car pile up. Not to mention all the other cars were behind me and they were not wanting to settle in any way! He never stopped working for me and had my best interest at heart! Audra W.
