I was in a store when a fire exstinguisher fell off the wall and exploded on me and my family they
want to settle and offered $425. Is this good?

Additional Details:
my daughter had a reaction to the chemicals. Should I expect more?

It is difficult to answer your question given the lack of information about the injuries that you sustained. If your daughter had a superficial reaction to the chemicals, then while a PI attorney might get you more, its not a very valuable case. Just make sure that before you settle any claims you have a full understanding of the quantum of your daughter's injuries. (Get a doctor to tell you that there will be no lasting problems).
