How Much Is My Case Worth?

Hi, I’m Matt Dolman of the Dolman Law Group. I’m a Clearwater civil trial attorney. A question I’m often faced with is, how much is my case worth? And the context I’m going to answer this question in is for an individual that was just in an auto accident. Keep in mind that the value of a case is based on a number of criteria. How much insurance is available? How big was the impact in terms of the collision itself? Was there a lot of property damage? Do you have prior injuries going into the accident? What are your pre-existing injuries, and was there an aggravation or exacerbation of your prior symptoms? Are you going to need future medical are?

Determining Case Value

Any attorney or legal assistant or paralegal or anyone that tells you how much your case is worth before you commence medical treatment, and seriously, before you have gone through a long period of medical treatment where we can ascertain what your future medical costs will be, is simply blowing smoke. They’re lying to you. The only way you can tell what the value of a case is, is based on the criteria we already spoke of. When you first are in an automobile accident, you’re not going to know what your injuries really are. They could be catastrophic, they could be minor, but until there’s a passage of time, we don’t know if these injuries will alleviate themselves. Will they heal? And what will be the permanent ramifications, if any?

Paying Back Your Health Insurance Company

If you’ve been hurt in an accident and you have health insurance, your health insurance likely has paid some or all of your medical bills related to your injuries. In that event, you likely are going to be required to pay back or reimburse your health insurance company for whatever money your insurance company has paid out on your behalf. The reason for that is, here in the state of Florida, a health insurance company who has paid benefits for you typically has a statutory lien against any money that you recover in your case. So if you, through the assistance of your attorney, recover money for your accident case, then you may have to take some of that money and pay it back to your health insurance company.

Difference Between Car And Truck Accidents

There’s a big difference between investigating and assessing or evaluating a car wreck case from a big rig tractor trailer truck case. First, you have to remember that typically the trucking company has investigators, has experts, has its corporate representatives, and often even lawyers getting to the scene while the investigation is still taking place by law enforcement. That is very unusual and very different from what we have in a car wreck case. Also, there are certain federal regulations that apply to the big rig truck that do not apply in the car wreck case. You’re looking at different kinds of vehicles, different kinds of responsibilities, and remember we are basically amateurs when we drive cars whereas truck drivers are professionals and they are held to a higher standard. So the investigation must center in part on that, and on the conduct of the company employing the truck driver.

Semi-Truck Accident Attorney

Retaining an attorney after you’ve been injured in a big rig trucking accident is essential, but you want to get not just a good lawyer, the best lawyer. You want someone who is qualified, someone who has had experience in handling, in litigating, and hopefully in taking to verdict some big rig tractor trailer truck cases. You need a lawyer who knows the federal regulations. You need a lawyer who is trusted by other lawyers. It’s not good enough to just research a lawyer on the Internet. You want to find out his or her reputation by checking with other lawyers or by checking with organizations to see what her qualifications are and what she has been doing over the course of her career.

Rules To An 18 Wheeler Accident

The rules are definitely different when it comes to investigating and determining fault in a case as between a big rig tractor-trailer truck and a car wreck. For example, when it comes to whether or not a given driver ran a red light or ran a stop sign, the rules are similar. However, in the big rig trucking cases, remember we’re dealing with professional drivers with special professional licenses, and when a professional truck driver is in a big rig, he or she is subject to rules pursuant to different state and federal regulations which place a higher responsibility on that particular driver, on the driver’s rig, and on the company responsible for employing that driver. So, yes, they are different.
