According to a study by Jury Verdict Research, the average gunshot wound verdict is $727,852 ($100,000 median).
For the purposes of this study, a gunshot wound is defined as soft tissue damage to the victim caused by a birdshot, a pellet gun, BB gun, or traditional gun with no organ damage, fractures, paralysis, brain damage, visual impairment, or hearing loss.
It is difficult to recover damages for an intentional gunshot wound because it is difficult to get insurance for intentional acts and it is even more difficult to claim that the company/municipality the shooter was working for was vicariously liable or there is a negligent security angle.

This page looks at the settlement and trial value of personal injury cases in California. This page was last updated on January 18, 2023.
One study found that the average money damage award for personal injury trials in California is $1,814,094. The median verdict, perhaps a better statistic, is $114,305.
According to a Jury Verdict Research study published this month, the average compensation for a personal injury lawsuit in Texas over the last six years is $826,892. The highest verdict was over $100 million, which obviously, inflated the average verdict. The median judgment is only $12,281.
Indeed, medical malpractice reform in Texas has not helped this number in recent years. A Texas medical malpractice lawyer is hard to find unless it is a birth injury case or other claims with long-term catastrophic injuries and future medical care or future lost wages. So the average Texas medical malpractice settlement or verdict in a wrongful death case without significant economic loss is likely to be less than you would typically see elsewhere.
Keep in mind, too, Texas is less a state than several countries in terms of how they value personal injury cases. So a verdict in East Texas might be very different from a verdict in San Antonio for the exact same case.
Mississippi law and Mississippi jurors give slip-and-fall victims a fair shake. Here are some recent slip and fall verdicts and settlements in Mississippi.
Below are recent Mississippi slip and fall cases. A few years back in the Hattiesburg American, there was an article that slip and fall lawsuits in Mississippi were on the rise. The article offers nothing substantive to support the premise; the opposite may be true. We see fewer reported Mississippi slip-and-fall settlements and verdicts in 2023.
The data that links Zofran and birth defects keeps piling up. Lawsuits have been filed against the drug’s manufacturer, GlaxoSmithKline, because they failed to warn pregnant women that the drug can cause injuries to their unborn children when taken during pregnancy.
A 2023 update is provided at the bottom of the page. Otherwise, this is an old post.
Zofran is an excellent nausea drug that was originally approved for use in individuals who were undergoing surgery or chemotherapy. The nausea associated with these surgeries is unbearable, and Zofran does a wonderful job of helping people deal with the pain.
But the organizations that make drugs like Zofran are corporations, and what do corporations like to rake in? Profits. So naturally, GlaxoSmithKline tried to figure out other ways to increase their market share for Zofran.
One of the ways it did this was to push the drug “off label” on pregnant women suffering from morning sickness. Given the effectiveness of the drug in fighting nausea, this seemed like a good idea. However, the FDA did not and has not approved the drug for such usage, which comes as no surprise given the threat of birth defects to unborn children of mothers on the drug.
Our law firm handles medical malpractice cases around the country. These are some of the questions we are most commonly asked by people who have suffered or lost a loved one because of the medical malpractice of a doctor or other healthcare provider.
If you have a potential medical malpractice claim, you want to know what the average settlement value is for malpractice cases. But, even more specifically, you want to know the expected settlement payout in your case.
This is a sample demand letter in a relatively small case with approximately $18,000 in medical bills.
But this personal injury car accident case settled for a lot more money than any kind of simple multiplier of medical bills.
This “times special damages math” where you try to determine a settlement amount with a formula is dangerous. It often causes plaintiffs’ personal injury lawyers (and victims) to substantially undervalue a claim.
According to a new study from NIH, using chemical hair straighteners or relaxers can cause uterine cancer. Care Free Curl hair relaxer by SoftSheen-Carson is one the leading brands of chemical hair relaxers on the market today. Many women who used Car Free (or other relaxer products) and subsequently developed uterine cancer may be able to file a hair relaxer lawsuit against the cosmetic companies who sell these products. Hair relaxer cancer lawsuits are already being filed around the country and could soon be consolidated into a class action MDL.
This post will review recent medical research linking relaxers to uterine cancer and the lawsuits being brought against SoftSheen-Carson regarding its Care Free line of relaxer products.
