What is the name of your state? WI
My daughter was hit by a drunk driver 2 nights ago. Thankfully she is okay.
We had her checked at the hospital, she has a minor cut and bump on her head and she is pretty sore, but nothing long term.
The driver hit her and then jumped out of his truck and attempted to flee on foot.
The police did apprehend him. The truck is registered to and insured by his father.
The car, insured and registered to me, is my college daughter's transportation.
We are pretty sure it will be totaled.
It is an older car on which I carry only liability.
Because of this my insurance company told me I have to handle things on my own.
What can I expect from the drunk driver's insurance company? Can I hope to have the car replaced? Will they cover her medical bills and the day she missed from work?
I am a bit scared to begin this process because I don't want to be taken advantage of because I don't understand the system. I've heard that insurance companies hire people who's job it is to pay out as little as possible.
Any good words of wisdom before I proceed?
