Why Use a Settlement Calculator?

Understanding Your Long-Term Disability Settlement
Long-term disability claims often involve complex calculations to determine a fair settlement. Several key factors influence the value of your claim:
Medical Expenses:
Ongoing medical care, rehabilitation, and assistive devices can be costly. Settlements account for these expenses, including future treatment needs related to your disability.
Lost Wages:
Your settlement should compensate for past income lost due to your disability and future earning capacity if you’re unable to return to work or must take a lower-paying job.
Pain and Suffering:
Non-economic damages, such as emotional distress and reduced quality of life, are critical components of long-term disability settlements.
Policy Terms:
If your claim involves long-term disability insurance, the terms of your policy, including coverage limits and exclusions, significantly affect your settlement.
Types of Long-Term Disabilities and Their Impact
Long-term disabilities can range from chronic illnesses to severe physical or mental impairments. Each type of disability affects your settlement value differently, depending on the severity and its impact on your life.
Clear documentation of your condition, medical treatments, and how your disability affects your daily activities is essential. This evidence helps establish the full scope of your damages.
Recent studies show that claimants with comprehensive medical records and vocational assessments receive settlements 20% higher on average than those without detailed evidence.
Disability Type | Average Settlement Range | Common Causes |
---|---|---|
Chronic Illness (e.g., MS) | $50,000 – $250,000 | Genetic conditions, disease progression |
Permanent Physical Impairments | $200,000 – $1,000,000+ | Workplace injuries, severe accidents |
Mental Health Disabilities | $50,000 – $300,000 | Trauma, workplace stress |
Neurological Disorders | $300,000 – $1,000,000+ | Head injuries, genetic disorders |
