3 sad truths about personal injury settlements in Wisconsin

1. Insurance companies use lawyers and data to minimize your settlement amount

Insurance companies are built on top of the same actuarial mathematics as Potawatomi Casino. Potawatomi is collecting a billion dollars from Wisconsin pockets every three years because people believe they can beat probability. Actuaries build insurance policies in the same way slot machines are programmed—for maximum profits—by paying out just big enough (and just often enough) to convince passersby they might win. The money it takes to build Wisconsin’s biggest hotel & casino does not come from paying winners. The Potawatomi building is tiny compared to the downtown Milwaukee skyscrapers owned by insurance companies.

The life’s work of hundreds of career mathematicians is built into your policy limits and terms. When the insurance company calls you, they will sound sympathetic. They will follow their script, telling you over and over again, "We’re sorry this happened" and "We just want to get this taken care of for you right away." But like the slot machine paying out the occasional jackpot, the only reason that phone call happens is to increase the insurance company profits.

2. Sign-and-settle lawyers take a cut of your payout without increasing your settlement amount

A sign-and-settle lawsuit is an extension of the insurance company paperwork. The lawyers handle some basic paperwork and send it to the proper department so seamlessly they ought to share office space. Over-the-phone sign-and-settle marketing has been happening for decades. They want you to think getting your case handled fast is in your best interest, which isn’t always the case.

Insurance companies know whether or not your lawyer has a reputation for dragging insurers into costly court battles to squeeze more money out of them. Only when they feel the same fear and uncertainty as their injured clients will you find out what your case is really worth. A personal injury lawyer should make decisions on how to handle your case not based on how fast they can get it over with but on how to make YOU the most money.

3. Insurance companies value your injury claim based on the quality of your lawyer.

If Warshafsky’s attorneys prepare your case to win at trial, you will receive a higher cash settlement. Prosecution and justice for your injury or loss could make all of society safer from the liable party. Warshafsky sends a forceful message through your fair compensation, prohibiting those in power from ever causing unlawful suffering like yours again. 

Wisconsin State Legislature: Injury to the person. Wisconsin Statute § 893.54 (2023). Pleadings, discovery, and damages in certain personal injury actions. Wisconsin Statute § 802.025. Contributory negligence. Wisconsin Statute § 895.045. Punitive damages. Wisconsin Statute § 895.043. 

It is that simple… If your case isn’t prepared with the intent of walking into court to try it, WITH a trial attorney, you can count on getting less. I worked for 6 years representing insurance companies, and that’s the way they think.
