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.

Natasha Misra law is experienced representing injured cyclists. Because cyclists are largely unprotected when up against a motor vehicle, we understand that accidents can cause traumatic and lasting injuries. We work with accident victims to help them recover the compensation they need to recover financially.
Under Wisconsin law, a cyclist’s own negligence does not bar recovery if his negligence was not “greater than the negligence of the person against whom recovery is sought.” Rather, the cyclist’s damages would be reduced in proportion to the extent to which he was negligent.
In other words, if a cyclist was only 40% at fault, then he will still be able to recover up to 60% of his available damages. However, if he was deemed 60% at fault, he would be barred from recovery.
All forms of negligent or reckless driving can cause collisions with bicyclists. However, other causes include:
Defensive driving is the most effective way to avoid a collision with a biker. Maintain the speed limit, pay attention to the road, eliminate distractions, obey all posted signage, yield, obey traffic signals, and let others have the right of way. Above all, always keep a lookout: even if you are doing everything you can and should to stay safe, other drivers - or even cyclists - may not be. Who was doing the “right thing” simply won’t matter if you end up in a lethal collision, so put your pride aside and drive safely, even if someone else is acting reckless.
