What is a Fair Settlement for Pain and Suffering

In the attached video, David Fenstersheib of Fenstersheib Law Group discusses one of the most common questions injury victims ask: “What is a fair settlement for pain and suffering?” The short answer — as he explains — is that it depends. Every case is different, and the value of your pain and suffering is determined by several key factors, including the severity of your injuries, your age, occupation, and how your injuries impact your daily life and future earning potential.

Unlike medical bills or lost wages, pain and suffering damages are subjective — and insurance companies often exploit that to minimize payouts. They may argue that your injuries were pre-existing, that your pain isn’t as severe as you claim, or that your lifestyle hasn’t been significantly affected. That’s why it’s so important to seek immediate medical care, document every symptom, and ensure there’s a clear connection between the accident and your injuries.

As Fenstersheib points out in the video, the difference between cases can be drastic. For instance, someone nearing retirement with minor restrictions might receive far less than a young professional whose injuries end their career prematurely. Your story, your limitations, and your future all matter — and they must be presented clearly and persuasively to get the compensation you deserve.
