 Anyone who has been with us since the start of this feature is by now all too familiar with the topic of injury valuation. In the past two years, we've explored many factors that influence a jury's determination of an injury's price tag. It's the end-of-year recess, so we'll set aside the analytics this time and just have some fun.
