What Is Your Personal Injury Case Worth?

How Much Compensation Can You Recover for Your Injury?

As one of Las Vegas' pre-eminent personal injury law firms for plaintiffs, we talk to people every day who ask us why they should hire an attorney and about the personal injury claim process. The next question is often, "How much money will I be able to recover from my personal injury claim?" After all, Harris & Harris personal injury lawyers are in court every day fighting for maximum compensation for people who have suffered serious injuries. Surely we know what your case is worth.

The short answer: If you were hurt by the negligence of another, you can get compensation for your medical care, lost earnings, pain and suffering and other expenses related to your injury.

The long answer: There is no way to know the exact amount of money damages you can receive until you have recovered as fully as possible from your injuries. A soft tissue injury that you recover from in a short period of time may require only four or five months to resolve in a negotiated settlement, resulting in thousands of dollars. A catastrophic injury claim, on the other hand, may take well over a year before a doctor signs off on maximum medical recovery (MMR) and we can begin the process of evaluating your life-care needs of $1 million or more.

Getting injured in a motor vehicle accident does not mean you have won the lottery. The law is very precise about the types of damages you can recover and what is a reasonable cost for medical treatment and care. We can explain this when we speak with you in a free initial consultation.
