Understanding The Cost Of Personal Injuries
If you’ve been in an accident or have been injured, you may be wondering what kind of compensation you are entitled to. Let’s go over some statistics for the most common types of personal injury.
- Dog attacks – Owners of dogs are usually responsible for paying medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. Typical settlements are around $32,000 (Insurance Journal)
- Slip and fall accidents – Property owners usually pay general compensatory damages for slips and falls, and settlements typically range from $10,000-$15,000, but can be much higher if injuries were severe, or negligence is proven, such as in the case of a man who fell at Lowe’s who suffered permanent head injuries, and was awarded $16.4M.
- Truck accidents – The cost of a truck accident can top $7 million if there are fatalities, and much of this money is paid to the family of the deceased. (FMCSA)
- Car accidents – Car accident settlements vary. Soft-tissue injuries and whiplash may result in a settlement of $10,000-$20,000, while more serious injuries and disabilities may carry higher payouts.
- Workplace accidents – Workplace accidents can lead to permanent disability, lost wages, large medical bills, and more. The settlement amount for a workplace accident varies quite a bit, depending on extenuating circumstances – but we pledge to always fight for you, and get you the money you deserve.
