• Pain and suffering – for the mental and emotional distress caused by the injuries and the accident
• Funeral and burial costs – for any costs associated with services required after death (reserved for wrongful death)
• Loss of consortium – for the lost ability to have a normal relationship with the victim (typically reserved for wrongful death but can apply to cases with disabling injuries)
• Property damage – for the cost associated with fixing or replacing personal property damaged in the accident
• Punitive damages – awarded as punishment towards the defendant usually when gross negligence applies to the case

How much do these cases settle for? This is a very common question. Because Metro is involved, many people automatically assume that these cases are worth a lot. Although these cases can potentially be high value, the value of Metro accident cases are always strictly based on the details surrounding the incident and the lawsuit. Case values are determined on a case-to-case basis. Although it is possible for an average value to be determined, it is important to note that such average values can be misleading. Therefore, one should understand the different factors that can affect the value of a claim.

Some important factors to consider include the following:

• The severity of the injuries – the worse the injuries, the higher the value of the claim. This is because of the cost of medical care, including evaluations, treatment, follow-up care, long-term care, etc. Any injuries that require surgeries to treat will always be associated with a higher value. The severity of the injuries also affects the victim’s ability to work.
• The permanency of the injuries – injuries that result in permanent harm will typically be associated with higher values. This is due to increased medical care, more lost wages, and more mental/emotional anguish associated with the injury.
• The victim’s earning history – depending on the severity of the injuries, the victim could be unable to work temporarily or permanently. The victim’s past earnings are taken into consideration in order to calculate a value for lost earnings for the total time that the victim is unable to work.
• The mental and emotional impact that the injury/accident had on the victim – this refers to the victim developing and suffering depression, anxiety, fear, post-traumatic stress, etc. as a direct result of the accident and the injuries sustained.
• Whether the case settles or goes to trial – companies that are being sued often opt to settle out of court to avoid the high costs associated with going to trial. Some cases that go to trial and reach a verdict can be associated with a higher case value.

Of course, these are just some of the factors that can affect the value of a lawsuit. It takes an experienced injury attorney to be able to review the details surrounding a case and determine it’s potential value.

If you would still like to see an average value, or past values of cases similar to yours, it is important that you evaluate cases that are comparable to your own. A lawyer can help you with this as well.
