When a rider asks what their case is worth in New York City, what do you tell them in the first five minutes?

Glenn Herman understands New York City riders want a number immediately after an accident, and he says no honest lawyer can give one that earlier. What I can tell you is that what determines case value initially is the extent and the permanency of an injury. Is there a fracture? Was there surgery? Is someone going to be disabled for a long period of time? Because that changes the case immediately, and importantly, what does the insurance behind that responsible party look like? Because a case is only worth what someone can actually pay.
