The multiplier method, shown in full.
No proprietary score, no hidden inputs. It is the multiplier method, a common rule of thumb for general damages, so you can check our math.
Read the full methodologyMedical bills (to date and expected) plus lost wages, your documented "specials."
Pain & suffering = medical bills × 1.5–5, depending on how serious and lasting the injury is.
Economic damages + pain & suffering gives a low-to-high settlement range.
If you were partly responsible, the range drops by that percentage (comparative negligence).
Questions people actually ask
Is this an exact value for my claim?
No, it's a realistic estimate based on the multiplier method. Real settlements depend on your specific injuries, the evidence, the insurer, and your state's laws. Treat the range as a starting point, not a promise.
How is pain & suffering calculated?
We multiply your medical bills by a factor of 1.5 to 5. Minor, fully-recovered injuries sit near the bottom; permanent or catastrophic ones near the top. We show a low-to-high band rather than one number, because that's how negotiation actually works.
Why does my share of fault matter?
Most states reduce your recovery by your percentage of fault. If you're found 20% responsible, a $50,000 claim becomes $40,000. The calculator applies this to the range. It does not deduct attorney fees or medical liens.
Do I need a lawyer?
Not always. Serious injuries, disputed fault and a low first offer are common reasons to ask one. WorthMyClaim is not a law firm and does not refer cases. Your state or local bar association runs a lawyer referral service.
Want a lawyer to look at it?
Most injury lawyers offer a free first consultation and work on contingency, which means they are usually paid a share of the settlement only if you recover money. Your state or local bar association runs a lawyer referral service that can match you with one.
Find your state's lawyer referral service in the American Bar Association directory. WorthMyClaim does not collect your details or pass them to anyone.
