examples of settlements for hand and wrist injury?
I cut my right hand thumb ligaments and had to go through 4 hours of surgery to repair. I've lost 20 % range of motion in my wrist and thumb from the injury. It has been 2 years since the injury and now arthritic like pain is present on rainy days. Has anyone had a similar injury and what were are the settlement values you recieved from the workmans comp insurance companies? Any info would be helpful a lwayer has told me a value of $30,000.00 to $40,000.00 is realistic.
Divide your low number by 2 and you might be in the ballpark of what is reasonable. It really depends upon the state though. New York and Alaska have the highest values, west virginia and mississippi have the lowest. It also depends if this is your dominant hand or not, and if it inhibits the job that you do. If you have a desk job and this is your non-dominant hand this will produce the lowest value. If the injury is to your dominant hand and you have a labor intense job, this will produce the highest value.
