When an accident aggravates a pre-existing condition, you're entitled to compensation for the worsening. Understanding how these settlements work helps you get fair compensation.
Aggravation means the accident made your condition worse than it was before. This includes increased pain, accelerated degeneration, or need for treatment you wouldn't have needed otherwise.
You recover for the difference between your pre-accident condition and post-accident condition. Medical experts help establish this baseline comparison.
Aggravation settlements depend on how much worse your condition became. Cases can be worth just as much as new injuries if the aggravation is significant.
The value of your aggravated condition case depends on factors like medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and long-term impact. Our attorneys will evaluate your case for free and help you understand its potential value.
