There is no set number for how much an industrial injury claim is worth. Each claim is evaluated on a case-by-case basis that takes into account coverage for:
Medical bills, including all emergency and ongoing care, equipment, and medications
Lost wages and future earnings, as well as job-related benefits like pensions and health insurance
Pain and suffering for the physical pain and psychological anguish caused by what are frequently life-altering injuries
Punitive damages, which are “punishment” fees a judge has the discretion to charge to any negligent party, funds that are then awarded to you on top of other compensation
Wrongful death expenses for the surviving family members, meant to cover bills for funeral/burial costs, as well as the loss of income, companionship, and guidance of the deceased
