The best advice I could offer would be to get the best representation you can afford. You have been permanently altered, money don't fix that, but you also can't put a price on health. If you make 100 K a year for example and now can only work part time at 50 K then times the 50 by the number of years till 65 and start with that number and go up.
Make the lawyer work for you, or kick him to the curb. At the end of the day his back won't hurt, so think of you period.
