The important thing to understand is that every personal injury case that settles should do so based on a prediction of what would likely happen at trial.
You may have medical bills as a result of your injuries, and you may have lost time from work for which you were not paid. Those financial losses are the kinds of damages that can be calculated with relative certainty. What is often most important in your case, however, is the loss you have experienced as a result of your pain, suffering, and inconvenience.
One of the most difficult tasks for any lawyer is placing a value on a personal injury case. That is why it is critically important to have an experienced trial attorney on your side. If the insurance company is not treating you fairly and is not making a settlement offer that you and your attorney believe is consistent with the injuries you have suffered, it may be in your best interest to take your case to court.
Going to trial can be an intimidating process, especially for people who have never been in a courtroom before. They may not know where to go, where to sit, or what to expect. Often, they simply want the lawyers to stop asking questions.
The key in that situation is to have a lawyer by your side who has experience, who knows the courtroom environment, who has been there many times before, and who is comfortable guiding you through the process.
