How long do I have to start a Personal Injury case if it involves battery tort, negligence tort and professional negligence?

David F. Stoddard
Answered by attorney David F. Stoddard (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at The David F. Stoddard Law Firm
You have three years from the date of the incident to file suit, two years if the suit is against the government or a charity (many hospitals are owned and operated by the government or by a charity).

How much can I reasonably ask for?

David F. Stoddard
Answered by attorney David F. Stoddard (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at The David F. Stoddard Law Firm
First, it is probably premature to try to settle until she is released from her doctor's care and the doctor is able to say whether or not it's permanent. If she has been release and still has problems, it seems to me that it is permanent. Your method of calculating future lost wages seems reasonable, but the figure must be reduced to present value. It is reasonable to ask for it only if the doctor says her problems are permanent and you can show that her injury will cause the lost income. It might require the services of a vocational expert (but not in the early stages of negotiation, only to get it ready for trial). There are websites that have present value calculators, you should assume a conservative discount rate, such as 5% to 7%. If you do not understand present value of a future stream of income, this may be over your head. Pain and suffering is difficult to price, and may be the most valuable component of her claim. You have not given enough information for me to comment on it. For example, you mention her pain and future loss of mobility, but you do not describe the severity of her pain, nor do you describe what mobility problems she will have, and especially, how all of this will affect hr activities. I disagree with the insurance company?s advice to ?not waste your money on an attorney?. Ultimately, your case is worth what you can convince the adjuster that a jury would award, or what a jury actually does award if you take the case to trial. it is difficult to get reasonable offers for future lost wages and pain and suffering if there is no threat that you will go to trial. I would suggest finding an attorney who is willing to take a percentage of any settlement obtained over the $20,000.00 already offered. The fee structure might call for a higher than 1/3 for the second 20,000 (that is any settlement up to 40,000) because the attorney runs the risk of doing substantial work only to find that 25,000 is reasonable for some reason (the client would of course have to agree with this assessment) and there is some value in this analysis that the 20,000 is substantially fair, but it should not be worth 1/3 of 20,000. It may be worth ? of 5,000, however. For anything over 40,000, the fee could go back to the usual 1/3 (I offer fees less than 1/3 depending on the stage of proceedings where the case settles). These are suggestions, and there are all sorts of ways to structure the deal. However, believe me when I tell you, these cases are complex, and making pain and suffering arguments is a high level legal skill (I still read tons of books and go too seminars to learn better techniques for this, and I've done this for over 20 years).

How can I reopen my old case?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Gregory M Janks (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Gregory M. Janks, P.C.
Consult a local Michigan attorney who handles worker's compensation cases to determine whether you can re-open your work comp case. Generally work comp pays about 2/3 of your wage during your period of disability and for your work injury related medical expenses. Sometimes they pay for retraining/re-education. You can redeem your case for a lump sum, but then no benefits continue to be available. Usually you may not sue your co-employee or employer and are limited to worker's compensation benefits, although there are certain limited exceptions to the general rule. Again, call a local Michigan work comp attorney who regularly handles these type of cases. If there was a 3rd party that was negligent in causing/being one of several causes of your incident, you can sue them for your economic and non-economic losses, if you can prove their negligence (ie: maybe improper mirrors on the vehicle? Lack of a backup beeper? etc.). The worker's compensation carrier would have a lien on any such claim for the benefits they paid. Generally, these claims must be brought within 3 years of the incident (but there are some different time periods depending on your circumstances, which you give little detail on, ie: if there is a highway defect, a dramshop case, etc.). If the attorney you had failed to get you proper benefits, improperly handled your claim, failed to make all available claims, gave you bad advice, missed the time limit on claims, etc. you may have a legal malpractice case. You would need to consult a local Michigan attorney that handles such cases to determine this. There is generally a 2 year statute of limitations from when the attorney last handled your matter within which to make such a claim. Further, just because you believe your attorney "didn't help", doesn't mean there was malpractice as it is possible you think you are entitled to things the law does not allow you to claim. However, without knowing your exact facts, this really can't be determined.
