If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence, you will likely require medical treatment. Your injuries could be from a motor vehicle accident or a slip-and-fall incident. However, predicting the exact course of your future treatment can be challenging, as recovery is often unpredictable. Insurance may not cover all the necessary medical interventions when you need them most. Your body might initially respond well to treatment, only for injury complications to arise later. Conditions like arthritis may develop in the injured area, leading to further problems. Unfortunately, the possibilities of what can go wrong are endless.

One significant possibility is that years after your personal injury case has been resolved, complications could arise. These injury complications could require additional treatment you didn’t anticipate. This is why it’s crucial to ensure that your attorney secures enough compensation to cover unforeseen future medical costs. Experienced personal injury attorneys, like those at Schwed Law, will consider these potential costs. They ensure that your settlement or trial covers all possible future expenses

Your One and Only Chance to Recover for Your Injuries

The only opportunity you have to recover compensation for your injuries is to pursue a personal injury case. Your case can settle or obtain a favorable jury verdict. If you settle, you must sign a release. The release waives any present and future claims against the person who injured you. Similarly, if you win at trial, the jury’s verdict marks the end of the matter.

You cannot reopen a settlement or seek a second trial if you didn’t receive enough compensation the first time. You have only one shot to recover compensation. It doesn’t matter if you underestimated the severity of your injuries or encountered unforeseen injury complications later.

Planning Ahead to Ensure Maximum Compensation

Because you only have one opportunity to recover for your injuries, careful planning is essential. This planning helps you secure the maximum compensation needed for future medical care and ensures you don’t settle for less than what you may require. Working with experienced medical experts and economists can greatly assist in determining the likely value of your case. Medical experts can assess your injuries and predict the treatment you’ll need. An economist can calculate the funds necessary to cover future medical expenses.
