Many personal injury law firms will over promise and under deliver when they are trying to sign up a potential client. There are some dishonest practitioners out there, and Feiner & Lavy believes in setting the bar higher and being honest with our clients.
We know, honest lawyers, to some ears, sound like the Easter Bunny – a fairytale. Whether you believe us or not is up to you. But we want our clients or potential clients to know the real facts about personal injury cases.
While some law firms scream about settlement numbers, these guys aren’t being honest. This is a lot like advertising for the lottery where they only show the people who win the biggest jackpot. The truth about personal injury cases, just like the truth about the lottery, is that most of the payouts are in the middle and lower range. In fact, in New York City, the average personal injury case is likely to be settled for between $50,000 and $100,000. This doesn’t mean that we won’t work very hard for a bigger settlement, and we’ve won a good number of larger settlements, but this is what the average case honestly looks like.
Some of the key factors that determine the settlement will be the severity of the injury suffered, the fault of the other party, and the amount of pain and suffering involved. The worse someone is injured, the more likely they are to get a bigger settlement. And if that happened because someone was incredibly negligent, like letting a hazardous condition go unrepaired for a long time or not cleaning up something like snow and ice after a big snowstorm, and the negligent person had a history of this kind of behavior, then you’re going to get a bigger settlement.
And there are circumstances that can affect this. A serious head injury can be a multi-million-dollar case, where a broken elbow can be in the tens of thousands. However, if the victim, our client, is a pitcher for the Yankees or someone who is an especially skilled carpenter who makes a lot of money and now cannot work, the settlement can be considerably different than for an average person.
The cost of injuries suffered is staggering! According to a CDC study based on 2019 figures, injuries resulted in more than $4.2 trillion in economic losses! That comes to nearly $13,000 for every man, woman, and child in the United States. These numbers were bigger than we imagined. And much of this is the cost of negligence.
When you take all of this into account, you can understand why you need the best personal injury lawyers to represent you in your case. And we believe that Feiner & Lavy is the right law firm to go to bat for you!
