How much is your case worth if you were hit in Texas? At first no one can tell you for sure, because some pieces are still moving. Here is what it really depends on.
Value is almost always set by two things: how much insurance coverage applies to the crash and how serious your injuries are. You can claim your medical bills, your lost wages and pain and suffering. Medical bills are the easiest to recover, because there is a number to show the insurer; where a lawyer adds value is in presenting the pain, the suffering and the lifelong consequences to get you maximum compensation.
Some pieces are still moving.
When you hire an injury lawyer, the first 14 to 30 days are an investigation stage: which insurance policies apply to the crash, what evidence exists, and your first medical diagnoses. After that stage we have a much better idea of what your case is worth.
An example to make it clear. If there is a million dollars of insurance available but you went to only one medical visit or none, there is no injury to justify that million. The other way around: if the injury is very serious, even fatal, but there is only a $30,000 policy, the claim is limited to that $30,000.
In the pain and suffering. A good lawyer knows how to present your case to the adjuster for everything you went through, and how to present the consequences the crash will bring across your life. That is where maximum compensation for your claim is justified.
