What questions should i ask an attorney?

I'm shadowing a personal injury lawyer and conducting a brief interview for a school presentation (i'm basically presenting the interview). What are some general questions and questions specific to personal injury that i should ask? what are some interesting questions i could ask that would make my presentation awesome?

-How many cases per month do you average?
-What is your average settlement?
-How long does it usually take for a case to settle or go to trial?
-Do you prefer going to trial or settling?
-Do you find Plaintiffs work rewarding?
-If so, why do you prefer plaintiff's work to defense?
-What is the most frequent injury sustained by your clients?
-How long after the case is settled do your clients still have to receive medical treatment?
-Are your clients ever at fault?
-What determines the amount of money your clients receive?
-Do you get offended being called an 'ambulance chaser'? (hehe I put this one in because I'm on the defense side)
-Are insurance defense teams difficult to work with?
-Are there certain companies you refuse to sue?

the list could go on and on. lol
