I received a fracture in my 5th metacarpal bone in my foot. They are treating without surgery, because a pin may further damage the bone. However, they didn't rule out the possibility of needing surgery sometime in the future. The accident happened in NY, and I live in CA. We swerved to miss a deer, and hit a telephone pole instead. I was out of work for one month, and am back on limited hours. I am a hairdresser, so standing on my feet all day is common. THe Dr. told me today, that it may be 3 more months until the bone is healed.....so no hiking trips or other activities I enjoy. Does anyone know what ammount I should look at for a settlement? I really don't want to involve a lawyer, but I already feel like the company is trying to jerk me around. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
