A: $10,000,000. Not to be too flip, but no one would know from what you posted. In fact, an attorney would also not know if you went in and discussed it, since this was basically only 10 days ago. The value of a case is mostly based upon the medical bills and lost income from work, and you simply do not know yet what those amounts will be. Maybe in a month or two you will once you have recovered, but not till then. Meantime, I strongly suggest you do find a personal injury attorney to handle your case.

A: Personal injury cases can take some time to resolve. If you accept some quick money, you may be settling your case for much less than you deserve. You should go through some therapy and get evaluated by a specialist. Before you sign anything and before you accept any settlement, sit down with a personal injury to discuss your rights.
