Joshua was severely injured in 2022. A mixture of traumatic injuries led to over $20,000 in medical expenses. To make matters worse, his insurance company offered $5,000 to cover his pain and suffering.
What amount of financial stress and turmoil would Joshua have faced had he not stood up for himself and made the call to us? In connecting with our team, Joshua explained his situation and we got right to work.

When he partnered with our firm, it changed his life. The settlement value of Joshua’s case increased by nearly 45%. The final settlement was $37,000. Joshua walked away with his medical bills paid and more.
What fears or misunderstandings are keeping you from trusting your case with Mann Wyatt Tanksley? A common roadblock for injury victims is the question “is my case worth more?”
The best way to determine if your value can increase is to consult with an attorney. A great way to find your ideal attorney is to review personal injury lawsuit settlement amounts. Look for cases that improved after working with a specific law firm.
But you can’t do that unless you take the time to read the results. If you can hone in on the possible final results—how many past clients’ offers have improved due to working with an attorney rather than taking the initial insurance offer—it will free you up to make data-driven decisions rather than assumption-based decisions.
In researching attorneys, any further benefits that stand out to you on top of a track record of typical personal injury settlements should encourage you to schedule a free consultation. These benefits being second tier include:
- Good communication
- Respectable over the phone and or in person
- Knowledgeable insights—educating you through the process
- Treating you as a person rather than a number
To help you take data-driven action in choosing which firm you need to call for more information, take a glance at our case results. Here are real cases we’ve helped at Mann Wyatt Tanksley that increased in monetary value by partnering with our firm.
A client from 2023 sustained injuries including a concussion and right knee contusion. This is a knee bruise when small blood vessels under the skin are damaged from direct impact or trauma to the knee.
The total medical bills from these injuries amounted to $12,509. While the insurance company only offered $8,913 to cover the damages. We took this Kansas case and settled it in a little under a year. This case settled in pre-litigation for $40,500.
Another Kansas client came to us in 2019 with rib-related injuries. Their insurance offer was $4,400, while the medical bills had stacked up to $22,581.32. This case filed suit and resulted in a final settlement of $30,500.

Is there an Average Personal Injury Settlement?
It’s relatively impossible to provide you with an average personal injury settlement. Even if the injuries were categorized from broken toe all the way up to traumatic brain injury, no two cases are the same. Think of a hypothetical example involving two victims of concussions.
Victim #1 is a healthy 26-year-old, while victim #2 is in their 70’s with pre-existing head trauma. The impact of the same injury could have significantly different effects on both lives. Even though it’s the “same” injury.

And we don’t want to provide you with false expectations. Even with the intent to provide you with helpful resources, if we communicated average bodily injury settlement amounts for your specific injury, that now becomes a standard you would be very unhappy if we did not meet!
Our attorneys are excellent communicators. Mike Wyatt and team treat every case like it’s their only case, using tailored strategies to help their clients win deserved compensation.
Finally, an incredible amount of factors can dictate the final amount of a settlement. To give you a sense of these nuances, these could range from the severity of the injuries to liability and fault. They could also include economic damages, like emergency room visits, medical care, and future and ongoing treatment.
