New Hampshire 상해 청구에서 무엇을 회수할 수 있는지 결정하는 5가지 법적 사실. 이 규칙들은 계산기 추정 이전에 적용됩니다.
You can recover as long as you are 50% or less at fault. Reach 51% = $0. Damages reduced proportionally.
You file the claim against the at-fault driver's liability insurance. No PIP requirement; you recover pain & suffering directly without crossing a threshold.

Personal injury cases in New Hampshire are filed in the state trial court of the county where the accident occurred, where the defendant resides, or where the defendant’s business is located. New Hampshire operates a comfortable 3-year window for personal injury claims — you must file suit (not just submit a claim) before this deadline expires.
Venue strategy: Urban-county juries in New Hampshire historically award above-median non-economic damages, while rural-county juries lean conservative. For severe-injury cases, plaintiffs file in the largest population center where the accident or defendant has venue.
Key rules: New Hampshire's modified 51% bar means recovery is barred at 51% or above fault; no general statutory cap on non-economic damages in standard PI cases. No statutory cap on punitive damages (subject to constitutional due-process limits).
New Hampshire requires a minimum bodily injury policy of $25K per person / $50K per accident plus $25K property damage. This is near the national norm — severe injury cases regularly exceed the at-fault driver's minimum policy. The largest national auto carriers active in New Hampshire are State Farm, GEICO, Progressive, Allstate, USAA (military only), and Liberty Mutual — each uses different proprietary valuation software (Colossus, Mitchell ClaimIQ, ISO ClaimSearch) with different appetites for litigation.
New Hampshire's higher minimum policy floor reduces (but does not eliminate) underinsurance exposure. For severe injury cases — surgery, TBI, permanent impairment — always request a copy of the defendant's declarations page early to identify policy limits and any umbrella policies stacked on top.
Average: 6–18 months for routine cases; 18+ months for cases involving surgery, contested liability, or commercial defendants.
New Hampshire's 3-year SOL is the national norm — most claimants can comfortably reach MMI before the deadline forces a protective filing.
The standard 5-phase progression:
The following ranges are derived from New Hampshire’s typical multiplier (1.5–5×) applied to industry-standard medical bill scenarios. Anonymized to protect privacy; not specific verdicts.
| Injury Profile | New Hampshire Settlement Range | Driver |
|---|---|---|
| Rear-end collision, soft tissue, 6-week recovery, ER + 8 PT sessions | $10,000 – $22,500 | Lower multiplier (1.5×); recovery confirmed by treating physician |
| Cervical disc herniation, no surgery, 6 months PT + 2 epidural injections | $25,000 – $45,000 | Moderate multiplier (2×–3×); imaging confirms organic injury |
| Lumbar disc fusion (single level), 12+ months recovery, residual restrictions | $80,000 – $100,000 | Higher multiplier (3×–4×); surgery + permanent impairment rating |
| Traumatic brain injury (moderate), 18+ months treatment, cognitive deficits documented | $120,000 – $400,000 | Top multiplier (5×); life-altering impact + vocational expert report |
Insurance defense strategies you should anticipate in New Hampshire:
Roughly 95% of New Hampshire personal injury cases settle without trial. Trial is the right move when:
Trials in New Hampshire typically take 12-30 months from filing to verdict, with discovery (depositions, expert reports, motions) occupying most of that time. Filing alone often unlocks better settlement offers — industry data shows settlement values rise 30-50% post-filing.

If you were injured in New Hampshire due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for both economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages — commonly known as pain and suffering. New Hampshire (NH) personal injury law has its own rules on damage caps, statutes of limitations, and how fault is apportioned. This page explains the key New Hampshire-specific factors that affect your settlement, and the calculator above estimates a settlement range using the actual NH multiplier and statutory parameters.
New Hampshire courts and insurance adjusters most commonly use two methods to value non-economic damages:
The calculator on this page lets you toggle between both methods and adjust the multiplier within the New Hampshire range to model different scenarios.
New Hampshire does not impose a general statutory cap on non-economic damages in standard personal injury cases. This means a jury may award any amount it considers reasonable based on the evidence of pain, suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life.
Punitive damages are also generally not subject to a fixed statutory cap in New Hampshire, though they remain subject to constitutional due-process limits established by the U.S. Supreme Court (typically a single-digit ratio to compensatory damages).
In New Hampshire, you generally have 3 years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. Missing this deadline almost always means losing your right to compensation entirely, regardless of how strong your case is on the merits.
Important exceptions and nuances that may affect the deadline in New Hampshire:
New Hampshire follows the modified comparative negligence (51% bar) rule. You can recover damages as long as you are not more than 50% at fault. If you are 50% at fault on a $100,000 claim, you still recover $50,000. If you are 51% or more at fault, you recover nothing.
This is one of the most consequential rules in New Hampshire personal injury law. Insurance adjusters routinely try to assign a percentage of fault to the claimant in order to reduce or eliminate the payout. Documenting your case carefully and limiting recorded statements to the at-fault party’s insurer are key defensive practices.
Settlement values vary widely based on injury severity, liability strength, and insurance limits. The following ranges reflect typical New Hampshire outcomes for the categories shown — your actual settlement may be higher or lower:
If your injury arose from a motor vehicle accident, the at-fault driver’s insurance is the primary source of recovery. New Hampshire requires drivers to carry minimum liability coverage of:
New Hampshire is a fault-based / tort liability state. You may pursue the at-fault driver and their insurer directly for both economic damages and pain and suffering — there is no statutory injury threshold required.
If the at-fault driver carries only the state minimum (or is uninsured), your recovery may be limited to those amounts unless you can pursue your own underinsured/uninsured motorist coverage.
Studies by the Insurance Research Council have consistently found that represented claimants recover roughly 3.5× more on average than unrepresented claimants — even after attorney fees. Most New Hampshire personal injury attorneys work on contingency (typically 33% of recovery, sometimes 40% if the case goes to trial), which means no upfront cost.
