If you were injured in Alabama and are trying to understand what your case might be worth, the first place people look is jury verdicts and settlements in similar cases. This page is about exactly that. It gives you real examples of personal injury verdicts and settlements in Alabama and explains how Alabama law affects the value of injury claims.
Jury Verdict Research once studied Alabama personal injury trials and found that the average verdict was $309,062. But averages can be misleading. One large verdict, such as a $12 million award, can stretch the numbers and make the typical case seem more valuable than it really is. The median verdict in Alabama personal injury trials is only $25,771, which is a better indicator of what many cases actually look like.
Plaintiffs win about 47 percent of personal injury trials in Alabama, which is roughly in line with the national average of about 48 percent. The national median verdict is around $40,000, meaning Alabama verdicts tend to run somewhat lower than the national median.
