[QUOTE="coolslice, post: 2688091, member: 50491"] Im 41. My understanding is that I will probably always have some pain from the injury (arthritis) but the ankle itself should not be in a weakened state, and the probability of a recurrence is no higher than anyone else. I am no longer a coverage driver, so the days of 175 stops and working a rock pile are over. If I were still in coverage, I would be much more cautious. With that in mind, I have heard that they could offer 10's of thousands of dollars. My opinion is that I would want at least what they paid out for this past injury, because it would almost certainly be more expensive with each passing year. I am not broke or anything, but I am going through a lot of estate stuff and in the process of moving. A large chunk of cash would be very handy at the moment. I know it's probably a little risky, but it's much easier to say that it isn't smart when there isn't a check for 30k+ sitting in front of you. By hiring a lawyer, it would only reduce the proceeds due to fees and what not. That said, I will definitely be informed before I speak with them, and I'm not ruling a lawyer. I would love to hear from someone who has been through the process. [/QUOTE]
