A little less than a year ago, I was in a “Minimal impact” fender bender. It went on record to be 100% my fault and my insurance paid out $1600.00 to the person I hit for damages to her car. Claims remain open for three years. Early this week I found out that this woman is now claiming medical injury and has proof of “Soft tissue injury”. I have been in contact with my insurance claims agent – She is not supportive, and only tells me every possibility. I was told that if the damages exceed 25,000 dollars – this woman can sue me for the remain amount. What are the chances that I will be sued?
Does anyone else agree that this world is corrupt? A middle aged well-off woman is attempting to sue a 19 year old college student. She drove an obnoxiously large SUV, I drive a little ford focus. I seriously doubt she is THAT injured.
St. Louis personal injury lawyer Stephen Schultz discusses preexisting medical conditions in a car accident claim for settlement. Insurance claims adjusters commonly deny or delay payment for a car accident injury claim when the person making the claim has preexisting medical treatment to the same body parts injured in the current accident. This is a tactic used quite frequently by claims adjusters and without a lawyer it is likely that you will be the victim of a serious of games and letdowns as you seek a fair settlement.

Yesterday I received a letter from my auto insurance company about an accident I had more than 15 months ago. What happen during the accident was that I was making a left turn as the light has turned red for a split second, but the other person from the opposite direction sped up trying to run through the light and our cars crashed heavily. My car was pushed back for about 15ft while his car stayed at the same place. However, after the collision, we got out of the car and nobody was injured from either sides. He has another passenger with him while I was driving alone. The police and paramedic came and asked if anybody was injured, but there was no injuries so the paramedic left right away.
In the letter they said that the other party is demanding a huge amount of money for medical bills and injuries claims. Here is what they are demanding: “Anthony XXXX demands $15,500 based on medical bills of $5738.30 and injuries include: Chest wall contusion, cervical/thoracic/lumbar sprain/strain, muscle spasm and Cervicalgia. The demand for Roxanna XXXX is $100,000 based on bills of $33,830.80 and injuries include: Lordosis, cervical/thoracic/lumbar sprain/strain, right hip and thigh sprain/strain, chest wall/rib contusion.”
As you can see, the list of the injuries are very suspicious since each and every injury cannot be seen physically. So what am I supposed to do with this claim? My insurance policy only has a limit of $30K. Will I be sued for the remaining amount? I’m a poor college student with no income or properties so what is going to happen if I get sued? I’ve been having a headache since yesterday worrying about this matter and couldn’t concentrate on anything else or even stay focus during class. Please give me some advice on this matter as this was the first accident I ever had and don’t have much experience on how it will be settled. Thanks for your time.
In the police report, no injuries were listed.
