What is my injuryworth?
Pick the body part and the treatment for an instant, illustrative range from cases like yours. No form, no callback, no wall. Then get the cited version, built from real comparable cases and the law, right now.
Illustrative only. Cases like yours have ranged within this band in the past; this is not a quote, a prediction, or a statement of what your case is worth. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. The cited, personalized version is built from real comparable cases and the law that applies to you. Legal information, not legal advice.
An instant rangeis the start. The citedone is the point.
The estimator gives you a ballpark from two inputs. The Lexstimate gives you a range built from comparable real outcomes and the controlling statute, plus your likely claim type and filing deadline, in plain English.
Every figure traces back to its source, so when an insurer is on the phone, you know where your number comes from. Legal information, not legal advice.

What injuries havebeen worth, by body part.
Illustrative outcome ranges from historically resolved cases. Every real Lexstimate is built from your own facts.
| Injury | Observed outcome range | What moves the range |
|---|---|---|
| Neck (whiplash, strain) | $8,000 – $110,000+ | Treatment duration and documentation drive value |
| Back (disc, structural) | $15,000 – $200,000+ | Surgery and MRI confirmation raise the range |
| Shoulder (rotator cuff) | $18,000 – $180,000+ | Surgical cases run well above conservative care |
| Knee (ACL, MCL, meniscus) | $15,000 – $165,000+ | Reconstruction and lasting limits matter |
| Wrist or hand (fracture) | $10,000 – $140,000+ | Hardware and permanent loss of use increase it |
| Head or brain (concussion, TBI) | $30,000 – $500,000+ | Cognitive impact and recovery time drive value |
Cases like yours have ranged within these bands in the past. Educational benchmarks based on historical data, not a quote, a promise, or a statement of what your specific injury is worth. Actual outcomes depend on your facts.

What is my injury worth?Answered plainly.
What is my injury worth?
It depends on the injury, the treatment you needed, your medical costs and lost income, who was at fault, your state, and the insurance available. No honest tool can promise an exact figure. The estimator above gives an illustrative range from the body part and treatment, and the cited, personalized version is built from real comparable cases and the statute that applies to you.
How is the value of an injury calculated?
Value generally reflects economic damages (medical bills and lost wages), non-economic damages (pain and the impact on your life), the strength of liability, and available insurance. Simple calculators multiply your bills by a fixed number. Caseworth instead grounds the range in comparable settled cases and the controlling law, which is closer to how outcomes actually land.
Does the type of treatment affect what my injury is worth?
Yes, significantly. All else equal, an injury treated with surgery or that requires ongoing care tends to sit far higher than one resolved with an ER visit or a few weeks of physical therapy, because treatment reflects severity and documented harm. That is why the estimator asks for both the body part and the treatment.
Is the estimate free? Do I need a lawyer?
The instant range is free and requires no signup to see, and you do not have to hire anyone. The cited, personalized Lexstimate is one step away, and if you decide you want representation, Caseworth can bridge you to an attorney with everything organized.
How accurate is an injury value estimate?
An instant range from two inputs is a starting point, not a prediction. Its value is showing you the ballpark before an insurer does. The cited Lexstimate is more reliable because it benchmarks your specific facts against comparable real outcomes and applies the law of your state, though no tool can guarantee an outcome.
