You’ve been injured in a car accident in Milwaukee. The bills are piling up. You’re missing time at work. And now the insurance company wants to talk about a settlement.
But how do you know what’s fair? Should you accept their offer? And who’s really looking out for your best interest?
At Natasha Misra Law, we understand how confusing and stressful settlement negotiations can be — especially when you’re recovering from an injury. Our team is here to help you make smart decisions, protect your rights, and secure the compensation you truly deserve.
A settlement is an agreement between you and the at-fault driver’s insurance company to resolve your claim without going to court. In most cases, it’s how car accident cases in Wisconsin are resolved.
But just because a settlement avoids trial doesn’t mean it’s simple — or fair. Insurance companies are trained to protect their bottom line, not your recovery. That’s why having a lawyer who knows the process can make all the difference.
You don’t have to take on the insurance company alone.
When you work with Natasha Misra Law, we handle every part of the negotiation process for you — from gathering medical records and building your claim to pushing back on low offers and demanding what you’re truly owed.
We’ve helped clients across Milwaukee and Wisconsin navigate the insurance process and recover the compensation they need to move forward. We’ll do the same for you.
Every case is different, but here are some of the biggest factors that influence the value of your car accident settlement in Wisconsin:
Who Was at Fault: Liability plays a key role. If the other driver was clearly negligent, you may be entitled to more.
Your Injuries: The more serious your injuries — and the longer your recovery — the more compensation you may need.
Medical Costs: This includes hospital bills, ongoing treatment, physical therapy, and projected future care.
Lost Income: If you missed work or can no longer do your job the same way, that loss should be reflected in your settlement.
Pain and Suffering: Emotional distress, physical pain, and loss of enjoyment of life can and should be part of your compensation.
We don’t just accept the first offer — and we don’t let the insurance company decide what your recovery is worth. Here’s what we do:
Our job is to help you get back on your feet — physically, emotionally, and financially — and we take that job seriously.
If you’ve been injured in a car accident in Milwaukee, you deserve more than a quick payout. You deserve an advocate who will stand by you and fight for every dollar you’re entitled to.

Getting into a car accident can have a major impact on your life. You car may be damaged. You may suffer from traumatic injuries. You may even have to miss work. If you have been injured in a car accident caused by another driver, then you have the right to seek compensation from the at-fault driver’s auto insurance.
But what happens if you are injured in a hit and run accident and cannot locate the responsible driver? Although you may not be able to seek compensation from the hit and run driver’s insurance, you can still find financial recovery for your injuries through your own uninsured motorist coverage.
In Wisconsin, it is illegal to flee the scene of a car crash. In fact, drivers involved in a car accident are legally required to stop their vehicles. Failing to stop after an accident could lead to criminal penalties ranging from misdemeanor to felony charges. In hit and run accidents involving injuries, criminal charges could result in mandatory jail time. Even with these harsh criminal penalties, hit and run accidents still occur every day throughout the state.
If you are injured in a hit and run accident, the first thing you should do is call law enforcement. Law enforcement officers who respond to the scene of the crash will help you receive any emergency medical attention you need following the accident. In addition, they will investigate what happened, write an accident report and attempt to find the driver responsible for the accident.
If police are able to identify the driver, then you may be able to recover compensation from the driver’s insurance policy. However, if the hit and run driver cannot be found, then it will be impossible to seek recovery from their insurance policy.
In the event that police cannot find the other driver, there are other sources of compensation for your injuries. In Wisconsin, all drivers are required to carry uninsured motorist coverage that would help cover medical expenses, wage loss, pain and suffering and other associated costs in the event that you are in a hit and run accident.
It is advisable to hire a Milwaukee personal injury attorney to represent your interests when filing a hit and run claim against your own insurance company. Although you have paid for your uninsured motorist coverage, your insurance company will do everything they can to limit the amount owed to you in the event of a hit and run accident. An experienced Milwaukee personal injury attorney will investigate the facts of your case, request an accident report, collect medical reports and maximize your settlement.
