If necessary, your Fayette County personal injury lawyer may even call in specialists to help calculate your potential future medical treatment costs or lost future earnings should you be disabled from your injuries, which will also impact the fairness of your settlement offer.

Often, insurance companies fail to include these costs in an initial settlement offer and will bar you from seeking additional compensation for those costs in the future. This is why you need to ensure that those costs are accounted for in any settlement offer you accept.

Depending on the type of claim you file and the circumstances surrounding your accident, a Fayette County personal injury lawyer can also help you determine if non-economic costs such as a reduced quality of life or emotional trauma may be included in your settlement offer.

If not, your attorney can help you determine how much to ask for during the settlement negotiation process. While an insurance company looks out for its own interests, a Fayette County personal injury lawyer can look out for your best interests.
