⚠️ Estimate only — not legal advice. Attorney fees (typically 33–40%) are not deducted from this figure. Consult a licensed attorney before making any decisions.
This calculator provides rough estimates for educational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Actual car accident settlements depend on insurance policy limits, comparative fault rules, evidence quality, medical documentation, prior injuries, attorney skill, and many other factors not captured here. A licensed personal injury attorney in your state can give you an actual case valuation — most work on contingency (no fee unless you recover). Do not rely on these numbers alone.
These are your out-of-pocket, quantifiable losses: medical bills (past and future), lost wages, reduced earning capacity, property damage, and other direct costs. Documented with receipts and records.
Pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and loss of consortium. These are calculated by multiplying your special damages by a factor (typically 1.5× to 5×) based on injury severity.
If you were partially at fault, your recovery is reduced. In pure comparative states (CA, NY), you recover even if 99% at fault. In contributory states (AL, MD, NC, VA), any fault bars recovery entirely.
The at-fault driver's bodily injury liability limits cap what you can collect from their insurer. If damages exceed limits, you may pursue your own underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage or sue personally.
Insurers and attorneys often multiply medical bills by 1.5× (minor) to 5× or more (catastrophic) to estimate pain & suffering. The stronger your documentation and the more severe the injury, the higher the multiplier.
You have a limited time to file a lawsuit — typically 2–3 years from the accident date, varying by state. Missing the deadline bars your claim permanently. Don't delay in consulting an attorney.
Our calculator gives you a starting point. A licensed personal injury attorney gives you strategy and results — typically on contingency, so no upfront cost to you.
