What is the name of your state? texas
hi, i am police officer. i was hit in my patrol car by a dwi driver, who was charged with dwi. the driver is a self employeed business owner. driver's vehicle was registered with his business name on it as "dba". i was life flighted from the accident scene, but do not have life threatening injuries. i am still recovering from injuries; stitches in elbow, cuts, bruises, neck and back.
my questions are; 1) how can i find out what his policy limits are?
2) after i settle with the autoinsurance can i sue him civily over the dwi? if so, can i handle the insurance myself and then get attorney for civil suit?
3)in dealing with the insurance co., does it make a difference, as far as the settlement is concerned, that the driver was dwi?
4)will the fact that i was in a county owned vehicle and i was working at the time affect the settlement?
5)i wont even ask what is a fair settlement, because i have seen that question a hundred times with no answers. i am going to ask for at least 5x medical, i thinks thats fair.
