Our firm is settling between 15-25 claims a week on average, I settled $10.5M last year in total, so just under $1M per month, I’m now managing our pre litigation team, Average fee per settlement for the firm is $16k currently, but this includes 3P and UM as separate settlements

I’ve got 90 cases currently, but as managing attorney I want to be under 50, when I settled this I had about 225 cases, were transitioning and hiring more attorneys

I'm on pace for 120 settlements and 700k in fees. I will make less than $120,000
