Common questions this Minnesota personal injury lawyer gets from clients injured in an accident are: What is my personal injury claim worth? How much will my settlement be? Will my case settle at mediation or arbitration? Will my case go to trial? People want to know about personal injury settlements, wrongful death settlements, and jury verdicts.
Not all cases settle. For the cases that settle, the answer depends on the evidence; settlements depend on the evidence of damages.

There is no such thing as a personal injury calculator for damages. The following are examples of results of compensation (settlements and jury verdicts) the Stowman Law Firm, P.A., got for injured clients.
