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 Kentucky law.

Kentucky rules this calculator applies

Fault rule
Pure comparative fault. Your payout drops by your share of fault, but you can still recover even if you were mostly at fault.
Deadline to file
You generally have one year from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim in Kentucky. 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 Kentucky 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.

What affects my settlement amount in Kentucky?
Factors include medical costs, lost wages, pain and suffering, and your share of fault. Kentucky's pure comparative fault rule can reduce your payout.
How is pain and suffering calculated?

Under pure comparative fault, your settlement is reduced by your percentage of fault but you can still recover damages even if mostly at fault.
