What is the name of your state? Wisconsin
I was in a car accident 2 months ago and after finally hearing from the other persons insurance again (their insurance is Progressive), they say that they arent going to pay me for my car damages cuz they say that they find me to be legally liable for this loss. I dont have any kind of insurance on my car at all. What happened was, I was driving on a one way street i was in the left lane, and a car in the right lane made a left turn in front of me and I couldnt stop in time and we crashed. My car doesnt work anymore and since its kinda old the damages exceed over what the car is worth. I've been without a car for 2 months now and I will be needing one when I start taking kids to school and picking them up soon. I was going to file a small claims court case but not sure how to go about all that. I've never been to court so I dont no what to do. I also dont no a amount to file that for. My car was a '88 chevy nova and worked great, nothing was wrong with it. The other driver got cited for improper left turn. I know he's still trying to fight that. I also have a medical bill for my back from this accident. I been looking around to talk to a lawyer (if I need one) and one that could help me out. I read that If I can get a lawyer to help me with this, they could write a letter to the other party to see if it can be settled first before it'd go to court. If anyone can help me out I'd appreceiate it alot. Thanks
