Using the Multiplier Method
The multiplier method is an equation where you add up the actual damages and multiply the total by a number between 1.5 and five. The number by which you multiply (the multiplier) indicates the level or degree of your pain and suffering.
compensation is split into three parts – or 'heads of damage'. Each part considers either what the injured person has already lost, what he might lose or need in the future, or how much he has suffered. The courts often calculate using previous cases with a similar injury.
