In personal injury litigation, the demand package is often the most critical document you'll create. It's your opportunity to present your client's case in its strongest light, to tell their story compellingly, and to demonstrate why the compensation you're seeking is justified. Done well, a demand package can lead to favorable settlement negotiations. Done poorly, it can undervalue a case or weaken your position before you even get to the negotiating table.
The problem? Creating comprehensive, persuasive demand packages is incredibly time-intensive. And for busy personal injury attorneys handling multiple cases, finding the time to craft each package with the attention it deserves becomes a constant challenge.
More Than Just Documentation
A demand package isn't simply a collection of medical records and bills. It's a strategic document that weaves together medical evidence, financial documentation, legal analysis, and compelling narrative to present a complete picture of your client's injuries, treatment, and damages.
Every element matters. The organization of medical records. The calculation of economic damages. The presentation of pain and suffering. The supporting documentation that validates every claim. And most importantly, the narrative that humanizes your client and helps the insurance adjuster understand the real impact of the injury on their life.
Creating this document requires not just organizational skill, but an understanding of what insurance companies look for, what strengthens a case, and how to present complex medical and financial information in a clear, persuasive format.
The Components of a Strong Demand Package
An effective demand package typically includes a detailed demand letter, comprehensive medical records and bills, wage loss documentation, photographic evidence, police reports and accident documentation, expert opinions when applicable, and a clear breakdown of all damages—both economic and non-economic.
But having all the right components isn't enough. They need to be organized logically, presented professionally, and tied together with a narrative that makes the case for settlement clear and compelling. This is where experience makes the difference.
