Injury claim costs by body part

What does an injury cost by body part?

Pick how serious the injury is. Each point shows the average medical bill for that body part at that severity; bigger point = costlier injury. Tap a point to compare it with the average workers’ comp claim for the same body part, which also pays lost wages. Then run the calculator for your own number.

About this Personal Injury Settlement Calculator

This calculator uses the multiplier method, the starting point most insurance adjusters and personal injury lawyers use. It adds your financial losses (medical bills and lost wages) to a pain-and-suffering figure, which is those losses multiplied by a factor set by how serious the injury is: 1.5 to 2 times for minor injuries, up to 4 to 5 times for catastrophic ones. The type of accident adjusts the result, and it is then reduced by your share of fault under Connecticut law.

Connecticut rules this calculator applies

Fault rule
Modified comparative fault (51% bar). Your payout drops by your share of fault. If you were 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing.
Deadline to file
You generally have 2 years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim in Connecticut. Claims against a government body usually need formal notice much sooner, and medical malpractice and wrongful death claims can have their own deadlines.

General information about Connecticut law, not legal advice, and the estimate is not a guarantee of any outcome. A lawyer can tell you how these rules apply to your case.
