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 North Dakota law.

North Dakota rules this calculator applies

Fault rule
Modified comparative fault (50% bar). Your payout drops by your share of fault. If you were 50% or more at fault, you recover nothing.
Deadline to file
You generally have 6 years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury claim in North Dakota. 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 North Dakota 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.

Frequently asked questions

9 questions
How does the Williston personal injury settlement calculator work?
The calculator estimates settlements by adding medical bills and lost wages, then applying a pain and suffering multiplier (1.5 to 5) based on injury severity.
What factors can increase my settlement estimate in North Dakota?
Higher medical costs, severe injuries, and clear evidence of the other party's fault can increase your settlement estimate.
How does North Dakota's fault rule affect my settlement?
Under modified comparative fault, your settlement decreases by your fault percentage. If you're 50% or more at fault, you receive nothing.
Should I accept the first settlement offer from an insurer?
It's often advised to consult a lawyer before accepting an insurer's first offer, as initial offers may be lower than your case's potential value.
How long do personal injury settlements take in Williston?
Settlement timelines vary based on case complexity, evidence, and negotiations. Simple cases may resolve in months; complex ones can take years.
What medical documentation is important for my claim?
Keep detailed records of medical bills, doctor's reports, and treatment plans to support your injury claim.
Do lawyer fees affect my settlement amount in North Dakota?
Yes, lawyer fees, often 33% to 40% of the settlement, are deducted from your total award, affecting your net amount.
How is pain and suffering calculated in North Dakota?
Pain and suffering are estimated using a multiplier (1.5 to 5) on medical costs, adjusted for injury severity.
What unique factors in Williston might affect my case?
Local factors like traffic patterns and cost of living can influence settlement negotiations, but specifics vary by case.
