Many Mableton workers start with an online tool because it’s fast. You enter basic information—injury type, treatment, time missed, and limitations—and the tool returns a range.
That output may feel plausible, but it’s usually built from broad patterns. In real Georgia claims, the settlement discussion is driven by what can be proven in your record, including:
- Whether your treating provider documented work restrictions clearly (and consistently)
- Whether the insurer accepts the cause of injury or argues an alternative explanation
- Whether maximum medical improvement (MMI) has been reached and what impairment is supported
- Whether wage loss is supported with payroll/earnings evidence tied to your specific periods off work
When those elements aren’t captured by an AI tool, the estimate can land too low—or sometimes too high in a way that pushes you to settle before the case is ready.
