Personal Injury
A medical settlement deduction may be an unpaid bill, an asserted provider lien, or an insurer or government recovery claim. Identify the claimant, legal basis, treatment, and document status before estimating net proceeds. State law and program rules differ; a preliminary Medicare figure is not a final recovery demand. Have counsel resolve disputed amounts before distribution.

Personal Injury
Most personal injury lawyers work on contingency, taking a percentage of the recovery (commonly about one third before suit, often more if the case is litigated) plus reimbursed case costs. Liens and bills come out next.
