Injury Case Dilemma: Cash Now or Courtroom Drama Time? We Help You Decide

There comes a time when the journey of a personal injury claim branches out in a fork in the road, and one must choose one or the other path – should you settle your claim, or take the case to trial? Personal injury claims, when done right, can be extremely lucrative and deliver justice that is often never seen in other forms of civil litigation. However, the choice to present your case and argue it in front of a judge and potential jury versus simply taking the insurance company’s offer can be stressful and overwhelming to the average
American; on one hand, you have the opportunity to recover maximum compensation as decreed by law in litigation but endure weeks of intense courtroom litigation as well as a potentially astronomical litigation bill, and on the other, you could wrap up your claim in just a few short weeks should you decide to go the settlement way but end up with a less-than-sufficient payout that could potentially jeopardize your financial future. These two choices can be both enticing and confusing at the same time, and it takes the experienced attorneys at McCready Law to advise on the best route to take based off the circumstances of your case – read on to find out how we can help you get maximum compensation regardless the road of justice you choose to take.

Reasons Why Some Clients Choose to Settle
Here are some of the potential reasons why some clients choose to settle:
- Faster Resolution – settlement is oodles faster than going to trial, as litigation is often lengthy and involved delays where either party may file motions as well as adhere to procedural requirements and court schedules.
- Guaranteed Outcome – Settling provides you certainty when it comes to the amount of compensation you will receive, with no surprises going forward. On the other hand, a trial may be unpredictable, and the judge or jury are the ones who will eventually decide your settlement, a figure that may not be known to you up until the end.
- Reduced Costs – Settling will not include the numerous costs associated with litigation where costs such as court filing fees, deposition costs, expert witness fees and so on, helping you save money over the course of settlement negotiations
- Less Emotional Stress – Litigation is not for the faint of heart as courtroom legal arguments, the possibility of the trial being open to the public and even the media as well as depositions can all weigh you down. Settlement helps you avoid all of this, saving you the emotional aggravation and potentially the resultant trauma of litigation.
Why Taking Your Injury Case to Trial Might Be the Better Option
Conversely, going to trial may be best for your claim due to the following reasons:
- Going to trial may see you garnering maximum compensation that will pale in comparison to what you would have gotten had you opted to settle. A well-presented and compelling case replete with evidence may see you garner a larger financial award compared to a fraction of what you could have gotten in settlement negotiations
- A trial provides you with the opportunity to hold the responsible party accountable for their actions particularly if said actions were egregious or excessively negligent in a public forum, which may enhance the sense of justice you may receive.
