Medical liens, health-insurance subrogation, case costs and taxes on some damage categories are not modelled here.

This is not a valuation, an offer or legal advice. Real settlement value turns on evidence, causation, venue, insurance limits, liens and negotiation. Verify every figure with a licensed attorney in your state before you accept or reject anything.

Pages on this site are grounded in the following classes of primary sources, rather than in other websites' summaries.

State comparative-fault and contributory-negligence statutes and case law — the basis of the estimator's state adjustment.
Insurance Information Institute — industry-level explanations of liability coverage and claims practice.
Bureau of Labor Statistics — wage data concepts used when discussing lost earnings.
IRS Publication 4345 — tax treatment of settlements.
NHTSA — crash-type and safety background.

No page cites paid placements, and no source pays to appear here. Where a claim cannot be tied to a primary source, the page says so in plain words instead of inventing a number.

Legal notice

This page is general information, not legal advice. Nothing on pedestrianaccidentlawyer.us creates an attorney–client relationship, and no estimate produced by the calculator is a valuation, a prediction or an offer.

PedestrianAccidentLawyer.us is an independent informational website operated by Mustafa Bilgic, an individual who is not a licensed attorney and does not run a law firm. We do not accept cases, review documents, negotiate with insurers or refer you to a particular lawyer.

Deadlines, fault rules, damage caps and insurance requirements differ by state and change over time, and a missed deadline can end a valid claim permanently. Consult a licensed attorney in your state before you accept, reject or file anything. To find one independently, use your state bar’s referral service or the American Bar Association’s Find Legal Help directory.
