Re: Mechanics Error Value of Case
The Value of Your case depends on many factors. Including your age, marital status, how much you earned per year.
In addition, depending upon the amount of insurance the mechanic's garage had there may be a limit as far as insurance coverage that may limit your recovery if the Defendant does not have any assets or little assets of value.
You should have confidence in your attorney. Make sure that he has handled other cases like yours and that he has hired an Economist to testify (if necessary) regarding your losses from not being able to work.
Good Luck.
