💰 Many injury victims receive a settlement offer before they fully understand the long-term impact of their injuries. Accepting too soon can leave you paying for future treatment out of your own pocket.
A fair settlement should consider more than your current expenses.
It may need to account for:
• Future surgeries or procedures
• Ongoing physical therapy
• Follow-up doctor visits
• Prescription medications
• Lost earning capacity if your injuries affect your ability to work
Once you accept a settlement, you generally cannot go back and ask for more if additional medical needs arise.
Before signing anything, make sure you understand the full value of your claim, not just the first offer on the table.
