What Is a Reasonable Compensation Claim for an Pain and Suffering Incurred From a Car Accident?

Question by circusboys: what is a reasonable compensation claim for an pain and suffering incurred from a car accident?
I was hit by a guy running a red light and wasn’t seriously injured but expect to be very sore for a couple of weeks. I am an actor and under contract to perform a live show, so taking time off is not an option- it would end my career in this town, so I have to work in pain. Also, I am unable to use painkillers or muscle relaxers due to a history with drug abuse, so the pain is full on. I don’t feel the need to contact an attorney, but feel I should be compensated somewhat for this guy’s negligence.

It’s free to contact an atty and if you don’t the insurance co. will rip you off! Being an actor and all I’m sure you would want the higest amount available to you. The atty. won’t get paid unless you do so…do yourself a favor and call one!
