There are no "average" settlements in injury cases. The truth is there are multiple factors that are relevant to the value of an individual case, including but not limited to the following: . Age of the claimant . Time and circumstances of the injury . Whether there are any third parties also liable (besides a claim against the employer), such as another vendor, manufacturer, supplier, contractor, etc. . Whether there were any pre-existing injuries . Nature and extent of the injuries . Record of other claims against the employer . Period of time unable to return to work . Whether only a temporary or permanent injury . The nature of future care, if any . The nature of future loss of employment or retraining required.

The amount of a workman's comp settlement will depend on the severity of your injuries. Each case is different.
