I was in a wreck. I was wondering how much should I settle for pain and suffering on all ligaments and muscles pulled in back of my neck?

There is no single answer to your question as each case is different. I recommend that you retain an attorney experienced in personal injury claims to assist you. Many firms would typically charge a contingency fee based on the amount you eventually recover. Remember that insurance company claims adjusters are experienced negotiators, many of whom have handled thousands of claims with similar facts. Their goal is to get the claim resolved for as little money as they can get away with, while you need to get an amount that, given the facts and the law, will compensate you for all of your injuries and damages. An experienced attorney can help level the playing field for you, and can also consider things that you may not have thought about in presenting your claim. Good luck!
