What Is an Injury Settlement?
An injury settlement is an agreement between the plaintiff and defendant to settle the case outside of court. It can be a successful way to receive quick compensation.
Non-economic damages are harder to quantify in dollar amounts. They can be defined as things like pain and suffering.
Medical expenses
Based on the severity of an injury, medical costs can constitute a substantial part of a settlement. These can include doctor's visits and medications, surgeries, and other procedures. The majority of these costs are not covered by health insurance, and are often very costly. In many instances, there are other expenses that are associated with the injury, like home health care or adaptive devices, transportation to medical appointments and much more.
Medical bills are usually paid by a private health insurance provider or the government's Medicare or Medicaid or PIP coverage. If you receive a settlement that contains unpaid medical balances, they must be paid by the settlement funds. Your attorney can negotiate with billing companies to lower the amounts.

These include future income loss or pain and suffering and other non-economic damages. Your lawyer must provide expert testimony and documentation of these other damages to make a proper claim.
Loss of wages
In addition to the compensation for medical expenses, injured people may also be entitled to lost wages.
