What's my case worth?
What personal injury law firms need to publish
This is the question everyone wants answered immediately, and it's exactly the one that requires real legal judgment, not a chat estimate.
How customers actually ask it
The same intent arrives in wording your page probably does not use. All of these mean the same thing:
- “What's my case worth?”
- “settlement estimate”
- “how much can I get”
- “case value”
What a complete answer contains
For personal injury law firms specifically, an answer is only complete when it covers all 4:
- 1
An explicit refusal to estimate a specific value
- 2
Why — value depends on facts only an attorney can assess
- 3
General factors that affect value, stated honestly
- 4
Direct routing to a free consultation
A worked example
Illustrative — not a real business
I can't estimate that here — case value depends on specific facts, injuries, evidence and insurance coverage that only an attorney can properly assess after reviewing your situation. Generally, factors like medical costs, lost income, and injury severity all matter, but any specific number before a real review would just be a guess. A free consultation is the honest way to get a real answer.

What silence costs
A speculative number given casually sets a false expectation that can genuinely hurt a client during negotiation or at trial.
More questions personal injury law firms get
- Do I have to pay a lawyer upfront?
- My accident was a while ago, is it too late to file a claim?
- How long do I actually have to file a claim before it's too late?
- How much is this actually going to cost me if I hire you?
- The insurance company already offered me money — should I take it?
- What is my case actually worth?

AI customer support for personal injury law firms
Personal injury inquiries usually come from someone who's never dealt with a lawyer before, worried about cost and confused about timing. RubyRep explains contingency fees honestly (no fee unless the case wins, the real percentage taken) and states the statute-of-limitations deadline plainly, since that clock is genuinely running whether or not the injured person realizes it.

What is AI customer service?
AI customer service means answering customer questions with a language model rather than a person. The useful implementations are grounded in a specific business's own content; the poor ones let a general model improvise, which produces confident answers that are wrong.

What is a knowledge base?
Traditionally a knowledge base is a help centre humans read. For AI support it is the source material a representative answers from — which means an ordinary website, well written, can serve as one without a separate help centre.
Does your site answer this already?
