In short, the medical special damages number multiplied by 1.5 to 5 plus lost income is the number that an insurance company will typically start with to negotiate a settlement. Keep in mind that an insurance adjuster will not inform you of what formula they used to come up with the worth of your claim.
To determine a claimant's past economic loss, courts consider various factors, such as: The worker's earnings history and work situation prior to the injury. Impact of unrelated injuries or subsequent accidents on earning capacity. Personal life changes, like the birth of children, that might affect work capacity.
Past loss of earnings is typically calculated by obtaining wage slips pre-dating (often for a period of at least three months or 13 weeks) and post-dating the accident, calculating the average net monthly wage prior to the accident and deducting the net monthly wage following the accident to provide a net loss.
To calculate immediate lost earnings: Hourly Employees: Multiply the number of hours missed due to the injury by your hourly wage. Salaried Employees: To get a daily rate, divide your annual salary by the number of workdays in a year, then multiply by the number of days missed.
