Answer:

Clients often ask us, after they’ve been in a bus accident, how much their case is worth and how much we will we be able to get for them. At the initial outset of a case, it’s oftentimes difficult to answer that question, mainly because oftentimes we don’t know how serious their injuries are, how long it’s going to take for them to recover, or how much medical treatment they’re going to need not only now but for the rest of their lives.

Once we get an idea of the extent of their injuries and understand fully how the bus accident happened and how much insurance coverage is involved, we can use our experience and give our clients an understanding of how much money we think their case is worth. We use how much we’ve seen cases like that settle for in the past, how much we’ve seen bus companies pay for similar type injuries, and also what we’ve seen juries do, not only in our cases but in other cases throughout the state of Florida. Based on this, we can give them a range of what we think is a fair and reasonable value to settle their case.

What we always tell our clients is that whether or not they settle any case is a hundred percent up to them. We will never force a client to do anything. We’ll give them our advice, we’ll give them our opinion, but at the end of the day it’s their decision whether they settle their case or file suit on it, go into litigation or present that case to a jury.
