Being involved in an accident that was brought on by another person’s negligence isn’t just frustrating.

Medical Expenses

To start, you’ll need to figure out what you’ve already spent on medical care. This will include costs like hospital bills, ambulance fees, doctor appointments, and medications. It may also include expenses from rehabilitation programs, medical equipment, and travel costs.

Additionally, your lawyer will seek an estimate from a healthcare professional to determine what it will cost to treat your injuries in the future so you are never left without coverage.

Lost Wages

The next step in calculating a personal injury settlement will be taking a look at your lost work wages. Of course, you’ll want to include any wages you’ve already lost during your recovery period. However, you’ll also want to include lost earning capacity to ensure you are always able to provide for yourself and your family.
