What is the name of your state? CA
I was in an auto accident 8 months ago. The other party admits full responsibility. I settled with the insurance company for the property damage after I had to take them to court in order to get what the car was worth. I also suffered a back injury from the accident. The MRI showed a moderate-sized far-out lateral disc bulge. The pain comes and goes depending on my activities. So far I have had $3300 in medical expenses and lost wages. The insurance company has offered $8000 to settle the injury portion of the accident. Is this reasonable for this type of injury? Am I missing something? Can I make them responsible for future treatment if needed and if so for how long?
