I got involved in a minor car accident on the way working in January. The car in front of me made a sudden stop after making a right turn. I hit its rear. Police came over and wrote a report. There was no damage on either car. My insurance company took pictures for evidence. Since that driver worked for a contractor of our company and we saw each other everyday. He said he was fine then we all went to work. Later that day his boss told me he went to hospital to check his back. Later than that he went to physical therapy. I told my insurance company and got his working vehicle information. He didn’t have my insurance information though. Last month I received letter from his lawyer (he didn’t spell my name right), and compensation organization and my insurance company. The compensation organization said they were continuing paying for the cost. My insurance company said the guy’s lawyer claimed the amount above my coverage. I saw him several times at work after the accident but I haven’t seen him for a while. His job is pretty physical. Now I am wondering if my life will get screwed by the minor accident. What should I do?
My salary is pretty low. It has been four months. If my insurance can’t cover the loss, I am not able to pay it off.

i was in a car accident back in June of 2010, i went through chiropractic and closed my account with them, i’m now having similar back pains again and want to re open my account with them. my insurance claim was never closed and has not been settled yet. but the chiropractor said i needed to contact a attorney about it. what do i need to do to get myself back into chiropractic under the accident claim?
I had a back injuy and visited the chiropractic doctor for 14 times. I had massages and exercises done for my back .
I was given 4500 for my car. I incurred a medical bill of 1500 for the doctor and incurred a MRI scan for around 2000. I am fine now and I didnt incurred a permanent injury. My Attorney tells me that I dont have a valid case and she is going to make a settlement with my insurance company and the guys insurance company who was at fault. My Insurance policy had a 10000 PIP and I dont know about the guy who hit me. I was unemployed from the time of my accident to this date so I think I am not eligible for compensetation for the wage loss.
Its been 15 days that my doctor have released me and the attorney had requsted a report from my doctor.
So how much claim is my attorney gonna make with the insurance companies? How much money is it likely that I am going to receive from my case?

After my accident I opened an injury claim with AAA, the insurer of the car at fault. Then I got a letter saying since they hadn’t heard from me in a few months that they would just close the the claim. I still have back pains and don’t know how to handle the insurance claim.
I’ve tried meds for my back, and they all just make me really tired or disagree with my stomach. I’ve also tried physically therapy a couple of times but it just made it worse. I don’t know what to do to save my back and and I don’t know how to make sure I am repaid somehow for pain and suffereing. So I guess I’m looking for legal advice too? I’m only 23 and I have back issues and it’s not my fault! What do I do? I’ll take ANY kind of advice…Dr’s? Lawyers!? HELP ME PLEASE!! Thanks!!!!!
I was in a car wreck and the insurance company only offered me 1,000 dollars for my injuries and inconvenience. So I called an attorney, and he sent me to a chiropractor. Due to my injuries he wants me to attend physical therapy with him 3 days a week. I was just wondering if this is going to be covered by my claim and will I get money for my self to get my life back in order.
I rear ended a car at an intersection as the car stopped for a green light. I was at fault. The police and ambulance came, but everyone declined medical services. Both me, police and fire asked the other driver multiple times if the driver was fine and the driver said he was. The driver and I both drove our cars home the scene. What are rulesa civil suit for injuries and stuff? Since the driver said he was fine than he waived his rights? I am only worried about a civil suit as insurance will cover all else.
the insurance company offered the full liability of $100,000. with a $10,000, medical. the lawyers wrote to the insurance company and told them not to cut the check until they hear from them. they said there might be possible lien’s. (doctor bills) as of yet the only thing my son has seen from the lawyer was the letter telling them to hold the payment and a letter to the insurance company that they would be representing my son. we have not seen any lien documents. my questions is, is the liability money for medical bills and can the lawyers pay it all away as their obligations. this is what he is telling my son. that he is obligated to pay the liens. in his letter he wrote, quote, “there will be liens”
