Degenerative disc disease settlements vary based on the specifics of each case. Factors influencing the settlement include the severity of the condition, the impact on the individual's quality of life, medical expenses, and lost wages. Additionally, the circumstances leading to the claim, such as whether it resulted from a workplace injury or an accident, play a role. On average, settlements can range from a few thousand dollars for minor cases to several hundred thousand dollars for severe cases with significant life impact. However, it's essential to consult with a personal injury attorney for an accurate estimate tailored to a specific case. Each case is unique, and past averages may not predict future settlements.
