Pain & Suffering Calculator
You've probably seen “pain and suffering” calculators online. Here's how that math is generally discussed — using your numbers. Important: this is an educational illustration, not what your case is worth. No tool can tell you that.
Your economic costs
Medical bills
Lost wages
How serious
Severity factor
A common framework multiplies economic costs by ~1.5 (minor) to ~5 (severe). This is just a framework.

Some lawyers discuss non-economic harm as a multiple of your $37,000 in economic costs. This shows that framework — it is NOT a prediction, a settlement, or what your case is worth.
No honest tool can value pain and suffering. Only an attorney who reviews your facts and your state’s rules can assess it.
Ask your doctor
- Can you document my pain levels and limitations?
Ask a lawyer
- How is non-economic harm evaluated in my state?
- What evidence would strengthen my situation?
