Cherokee County, GA Personal Injury Attorneys

Determining damages in settlements

Courts determine personal injury settlements and judgments by combining the following:

• Economic damages—physical damages to which the judge can attach a monetary value, such as the damage to your car and your medical bills
• Non-economic damages—physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and other intangible damages

The non-economic damages, being non-quantifiable, will greatly alter the value of personal injury settlements in Georgia.

Courts do not use a scientific formula to determine a personal injury settlement.  However, insurance companies and claims adjusters may attempt to offer a reasonable settlement amount based on the particulars of your situation.  They may use the following to determine how much to offer you for your injuries:

• Age
• Gender
• Type and extent of injury
• Nature of employment
• Number of dependents
