Depends upon the laws applicable under the jurisdiction where cause of action took place.

The settlement for an ACL tear would depend on the severity of the injury and the recovery process. The final settlement would probably be about $20,000 or slightly more.
An auto accident with no bodily injury will typically get a property settlement only. In order to receive any additional settlement including pain and suffering you would need to be able to demonstrate physical trauma via documentation provided by doctors.
A personal injury calculator could be as simple as a net proceeds calculator. You enter the amount of the gross settlement, the percentage being charged by the attorney in fees, and the amounts of the costs and unpaid medical bills or other lienholders, and the sheet would do the rest.
Roughly the amount of injury time played would be two minutes.
In the UK - to decide the amount of compensation you should receive from a workplace accident depends on two main factors. First, is your employer liable for your injury? If the answer is "Yes" - the amount of compensation you should receive depends on how sever your eye injury is as verified in a consultant medical report. Please see the associated link entitled "eye injury claims" to see examples of the amounts of compensation you can receive for different eye injuries.
Value of a claimDoes this question mean how much money would be paid? There is no simple answer. Benefits vary from state to state. In California an injured workman is entitled to all reasonable and necessary treatment. That could easily amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars. There is no policy limit on a worker's compensation policy.Treatment would include everything from hospitalization to crutches, drugs, a prosthesis, a wheelchair, and possibly a modified vehicle.It would include lifetime treatment unless the worker settled his case for a lump sum. The settlement would have to be approved by a Judge to make sure it was fair to the worker and there would be provision for future medical care.There would also be payments for lost wages. This would depend on the date of injury (since benefits change from time to time) and the amount the worker was earning.There would also be payment for the amount of permanent disability sustained which would depend on the worker's age, job and date of injury. This injury would be more disabling to a laborer than to an attorney.If the injury is 70% or more, the worker would receive a lifetime pension.Worker's compensation insurance does not pay for pain and suffering, so the same injury would probably be worth more money if it were a personal injury case. However, illustrating that nothing in life is simple, The average auto insurance policy would not provide enough coverage to pay the full value of such an injury.
There is no average or typical settlement amount. The amount of costs that the victim incurred in medical and other expenses addition to his/her time out of work would be the basis for seeking recovery. If the injured has serious surgeries and spent a lot of time in the hospital, the amount would be much higher than if they were treated in the emergency room and released. The amount of settlement also depends on the defendant's situation. His/her insurance would only be liable up to the policy maximums. If the defendant does not have the ability to pay over that, the potential settlement would be capped there.
Typically you do not have to pay taxes on personal injury settlments. Adding taxes into the equation of a specific settlement amount would be too difficult. For instnace, if an injured person is given a settlement for medical bills that comes out too little after taxes, it would have to be re-worked. Only smaller things can be taxed after a court case such as punitive fees assigned by the court or accrued interest. The law article below goes into more details regarding taxes and PI settlements.
There is an average of course with all numbers there is an average, however to place you in a ball park range is unfair, each case differs, so the answer to your question is it just depends on you your numbers, your state, coupled with your attorney. Good Luck
