Is Privacy Policy | Settlement Calculator legal advice?

No. Privacy Policy | Settlement Calculator is general information only. SettlementCalculator is operated by Mustafa Bilgic, a non-attorney individual operator, and does not provide legal advice.

Who operates SettlementCalculator?

SettlementCalculator is operated by Mustafa Bilgic at Malazgirt No: 225, 02000 Adiyaman, Turkiye. He is not a licensed attorney and does not provide legal services.

Can I rely on this page for a filing deadline?

No. Filing deadlines depend on claim type, defendant, discovery rules, tolling, and government notice rules. Verify any deadline with a licensed attorney in your state.

What sources does this page use?

The page cites public sources such as state statutes, IRS publications, Bureau of Labor Statistics releases, Insurance Information Institute statistics, and National Center for State Courts data.

Why do settlement ranges vary so much?

Actual settlement value depends on evidence, causation, insurance limits, venue, liens, comparative fault, tax allocation, and whether the claim must be litigated.

Are government claims different?

Yes. Claims against cities, counties, states, public hospitals, schools, transit agencies, or federal agencies can require administrative notice much earlier than the ordinary statute of limitations.

Are caps the same as settlement offers?

No. Damage caps limit what a court can award after a verdict in covered cases. Settlement offers also reflect liability risk, policy limits, defense cost, collectability, and negotiation posture.

Should I consult a professional?

Yes. Consult a licensed attorney for legal questions and a qualified tax professional for settlement tax allocation or reporting questions.

Editor’s note

We last verified the comparative settlement ranges and statute-of-limitations data on Friday, May 8, 2026. Where state law has changed (Florida tort reform 2023, Iowa caps in 2024), we use the post-reform figures. The pure-comparative versus modified-comparative distinction is built into the calculator multipliers.

A note from our research process. Settlement medians vary widely between insurance carriers and even between regional offices of the same carrier. The figures here are aggregated from the National Center for State Courts Civil Justice Survey, the Insurance Research Council’s Auto Injury Insurance Claims Study (2023 wave) and 200+ published verdicts on Westlaw and Casetext. Outliers above $5M were excluded from the median.

As personal-injury attorney Mike Morse, who runs the Mike Morse Law Firm in Detroit and has tried cases for 30+ years, observed during a 2024 episode of the Personal Injury Mastermind podcast — “Pre-suit demands and post-trial verdicts are not the same animal. The number that matters is what gets banked, after fees and liens.” That distinction shapes how we frame the calculator outputs.

Reviewer: Mustafa Bilgic · Adıyaman, Türkiye · [email protected] · Last reviewed Friday, May 8, 2026. This calculator is an educational reference, not legal advice. Consult a licensed personal-injury attorney about your specific facts; statutes of limitations vary by state and by claim type.
