A personal injury settlement calculator estimates the potential value of an injury claim by combining economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages (pain and suffering). Insurance companies often use a multiplier method or per diem approach.
公式
Settlement Value = Economic Damages + (Economic Damages × Multiplier)
- ED
- Economic Damages ($) — Medical bills, lost wages, property damage
- M
- Multiplier (factor) — Severity multiplier (1.5 for minor, 5+ for severe/permanent)
- CF
- Comparative Fault (%) — Percentage of fault attributed to the injured party

- 2Apply a multiplier (1.5–5x) based on injury severity for pain and suffering
- 3Alternatively, use a per diem (daily rate) method for pain and suffering
- 4Reduce by any comparative fault percentage and policy limits

よくある質問
What multiplier is used for severe injuries?
Severe or permanent injuries typically warrant a 4–5x multiplier or higher. Minor soft tissue injuries are usually 1.5–2x.
Does comparative fault reduce my settlement?
Yes. In most states, your settlement is reduced by your percentage of fault. In some states, being 50–51% or more at fault bars recovery entirely.
