PERSONALIZED INJURY (PI) DEMAND LETTERS

Are you an attorney with PI cases that are ripe for settlement, but you just don't have the time to prepare a settlement demand package?

I specialize in drafting PI demand letter packages that effectively communicate the severity of your client’s injuries, and the clear extent of the tortfeasor’s liability.  The result is a letter and exhibit package that encourages case settlement by unequivocally demonstrating the weaknesses in the insured’s position, should the case go to trial. 

In most cases, I can get a settlement demand package out the door fast, and into the hands of an adjuster.  Let me help you get that PI case on the road to settlement.

I offer three types of demand letter preparation, all at affordable, flat rates.  The descriptions below are guidelines only.  In determining the appropriate option and fee, I place more weight on the number of medical providers and the total of the medical bills, rather than on the descriptions of injuries.  In any event, together, we will choose the right option for you and your client. 

Option One - $169.00 flat fee

  • Medical specials up to $10,000
  • MIST-type injuries (Minimum Impact Soft Tissue)
  • Single ER visit (Level 3; undergoes triage process)
  • No hospital stay
  • One or two primary care physician visits
  • Short course of chiropractic or physical therapy
  • No or minimal wage loss

Option Two - $209.00 flat fee

  • Medical specials between $10,001 and $50,000
  • Moderate injuries
  • Single ER visit (Level 2; moderate injuries; undergoes triage process)
  • Short hospital stay
  • A few primary care physician visits
  • Extended course of chiropractic or physical therapy
  • Moderate wage loss

Option Three - $249.00 flat fee

  • Medical specials over $50,000
  • Major injuries
  • ER visit (Level 1; serious/critical injuries requiring immediate treatment and advanced care)
  • Moderate to prolonged hospital stay
  • Several primary care physician visits
  • Lengthy course of chiropractic or physical therapy
  • Extensive wage loss
  • Client often unable to return to work/may require retraining

What You and Your Client Get for Your Money
All demand letter package options include:

  1. Review of your client’s medical records;
  2. Review of your client’s medical bills;
  3. A review of the accident report or other documentation of the incident;
  4. Legal research re: law applicable to your case;
  5. Organizing of exhibits (e.g. medical records and bills)
  6. Drafting of the demand letter.  Letter will include discussion of:
    1. the incident;
    2. injuries and treatment;
    3. economic damages;
    4. the theory of liability that controls the case; and
    5. amount of the demand (as determined by you and your client)

I will deliver to you two sets of the demand package.  Extra sets are available for an additional charge (to cover printing costs.)
