The Factors that Affect Your Claim’s Value
What factors affect the compensation that you could receive? What factors affect the average settlement of a truck accident claim with Fairmont Specialty? The average settlement value of a Fairmont Specialty truck accident lawsuit is determined by the specific details of your claim. Some of these details include the types of injuries that were sustained and the policy limits that apply to the claim. These two factors are not the only factors that could affect the value of your truck accident claim; however, they are often the most important factors.
For example, all injuries have a value—which is deducted from the cost of treatment, hospitalization, and other medical-related factors. For minor injuries, for instance, you can receive $25,000, but you could receive $75,000 for moderate injuries. The difference between mild and moderate injuries is significant; therefore, their values are also significantly different. In general, the more severe, life-threatening, or life-altering the injuries, the higher their value. Spinal cord injuries and brain injuries can be worth up to $150,000 and $250,000, respectively. However, both spinal cord injuries and traumatic brain injuries could be worth millions under certain circumstances.
In addition to the injuries sustained, the policy limits that apply to your claim could also affect the truck accident settlement amounts for a truck accident claim with Fairmont Specialty. Policy limits are determined by the insurance policy carried by the truck involved in the accident. Trucks are required to carry insurance policies ranging from $300,000 to $5 million depending on the type of truck and its risk level. The policy limit is the highest coverage available based on the insurance policy carried. The policy limit determines the maximum amount that a claimant could recover. For example, a policy limit of $350,000 would limit your claim value to that amount. If your claim is valued anything over the policy limit, like $400,000, you could not recover the full value of your claim. In other words, you could only recover what is allowed by the policy limit.
There are many other factors that could affect the average value of a truck accident case against Fairmont Specialty. If you would like to learn more about the other factors that could affect the value of your truck accident claim against the insurance company, you must contact our law firm as soon as possible.
