Read the how-to

The formula

How this number is built

value = (economic + medical × severity multiplier) × (1 − comparative fault)

Step by step

Doing it by hand

Step 1

Total every expense that has a receipt behind it — that is your economic floor.

Step 2

Estimate future care from a treating physician's plan rather than a guess.

Step 3

Choose severity honestly; adjusters compare your file against thousands of similar ones.

Step 4

Apply comparative fault if any part of the incident was arguably yours.

Step 5

Compare the result to any offer already on the table before responding.

Questions

What people ask next

What counts as economic damages?

Anything with an invoice: treatment, prescriptions, mileage to appointments, assistive devices, and provable lost income.

How long does a claim like this take?

Straightforward claims often resolve in 3–9 months. Cases with surgery or disputed fault regularly run past a year.
