Auto Insurance Claims: Pedestrian Hit by Car, cartilage damage, emotional damages


Question
Hello,

I am the pedestrian that was hit by a car during my lunch break.  I am just about finished with my medical treatment and will return to normal work this week.  I suffered a strained MCL, meniscus and cartilage damage.  I also suffered from PTSD and GERD (from all the medication).  I was only on the job about 6 weeks and this accident happened on 9/5/08.  I have to start my probation all over again and will continue medication for my emotional damages.  My medical bills are about $13,000 and my lost wages are about $18,500.

Can you give me an estimated value of my claim?  I am going to take legal action however would like some help.

Thanks.
