How much should a settlement be if?
Answer:
You're not "entitled" to damages until you WIN a lawsuit. You need to prove that whoever left the cable there did so negligently, and sue that entity.
You need to get a lawyer.
You don't get carpel tunnel from a fall - it's a repetitive motion injury.
Depending on where the scar is, how big it is, how much it detracts from your looks (women get more for that), how much you lost in wages due to being injured, you *might* get $5,000. But if they aren't making you an offer now, they probably won't.
How much is your attorney demanding?
BTW, you won't get a blessed thing for having the cops called on you. No malicious intent there.
OVER $10000.00..
I don't know. I assume your attorney is taking about half of whatever you get. Your medical should be all covered. The rest is really up to your attorney and the insurance company. Why don't you ask your attorney?
To get a real decent answer you should ask several attorneys to check it out before just letting one take the case.
your question is confusing. Is you claim about the foot injury or the security guard issue. They are 2 separate claims. You might get zero on the foot issue as a question would be why didnt you see the cable? You also didnt say how much your medical bills were as this is the most important part of the case.
The security thing might be zero too as they may have had probable cause to stop you. More info is needed.
Can get a lot
