What is the name of your state? NJ

I had an accident in Feb'03. Had a wrist fracture in the left hand. Still in pain. Still 2 of my fingers dont bend and one has contracture. Wrist is still in lot of pain.
My lawyer says ive a max on my insurance of 250k. But he says the settlement may be less than 100k. I dont understand. I read in papers everyday that someone spills coffee on them and they get 1Mil. ??? Im in so much pain all along. Ive got disability from state. but now have started work. im into computer software.

What doyou think should be a fair settlement ?

Thanks!!

Just because some attorney was able to get 1mil for a coffee spill doesn't mean YOUR going to get sqaut! Every case is different.

We need more info here. What type of accident was this, auto, industrial etc. Is someone else at fault here? More info please.
