How does the settlement process work?

A settlement agreement works by the parties coming to terms on a resolution of the case. The parties agree on exactly what the outcome is going to be. They put the agreement in writing, and both parties sign it. Then, the settlement agreement has the same effect as though the jury decided the case with that outcome.

Does California tax personal injury settlements?

The majority of personal injury settlements are tax-free. This means that unless you qualify for an exception, you will not need to pay taxes on your settlement check as you would regular income. The State of California does not impose any additional taxes on top of those from the IRS.

How do you write a counter offer for a personal injury settlement?

A good settlement offer should not only be able to cover your hospital bills and legal fees, but it should also be equivalent to close to a years worth of your current wages, especially in cases where your injuries may be permanent or cause some kind of disability.

How is settlement value calculated?

Settlement amounts are typically calculated by considering various economic damages such as medical expenses, lost wages, and out of pocket expenses from the injury. However non-economic factors should also play a docHub role. Non-economic factors might include pain and suffering and loss of quality of life.

How do you counter offer a settlement letter?

Your letter should clearly: State that the offer you received is unacceptable. Refute any statements in the adjustors letter that are inaccurate and damaging to your claim. Re-state an acceptable figure. Explain why your counteroffer is appropriate, including the reasons behind your general damages demands.
