I would need a little extra information to calculate this and determine if we can get your claim out of your hands. By that I mean, there are situations where you can get the injury to the body as a whole as opposed to just the extremities, this could increase yoru recovery substantially. I assure you, they will try and settle with you for as little as possible. Also, to determine the proper multiplier under the statute I would need to know if you were returned to work, have been terminated, have been demoted, etc. I am glad to assist you.
