| I'm not a lawyer, so there may be some reason that your lawyer is telling you that your medical expenses are not covered by the at-fault driver's insurance that I would be unaware of, but what you are being told doesn't make sense to me.
Was the driver of the car in which you were riding injured, if so who paid for the driver's medical costs?
Any other passengers in the car in which you were riding, if so who paid for their medical expenses?
I would think that if the answer to the first part of either question above is "yes" and the answer to the second part of either question above is "at-fault driver's insurance company", it would seem to lend a good deal of weight to your argument that the at-fault driver's insurance should pay your costs as well.
What was the your lawyer's explanation for the at-fault driver's insurance not paying your damages?
If this has no reasonable explanation, I think that I would consult another lawyer. Actually, no matter the explanation, I think that I would consult another lawyer regarding an attempt recover damages from the driver of your car or the driver of the at-fault car.
As stated above, I'm not a lawyer, so this may all be correct per the law, but just from a common sense point of view ... -
