Understanding the Factors Juries Take Into Account
In Tennessee, juries in personal injury cases are not given any sort of formula for determining damages on a claim. They have a great deal of leeway to look at the facts of the case and the information that has been presented to them, including such information as:
- The amount of your medical bills
- The extent of any permanent injuries you have suffered
- The length of time your recovery is expected to take
- Any pain and suffering associated with your injuries
- Whether you were partially at fault for your accident
Another major factor many juries look at is whether the plaintiff and his or her attorney appear to be honest, credible, and sincere. That is why it is important to retain a law firm made up of attorneys who take a straightforward approach and do not just tell people what they want to hear.
Taking a Responsible Approach to Expectation-Setting
Any personal injury lawyer who claims to be able to tell you what your claim is worth during your initial consultation is doing you a disservice. A responsible attorney will look carefully at the evidence before giving the client any sort of specific expectations about his or her claims.
We will do everything we can to maximize the money damages you receive in your personal injury case. You will pay no legal fees unless we are successful at obtaining compensation for your injuries. Contact us to discuss your concerns about the value of your injury claim.
