Hello, My name is Liza and I was in a car accident on Nov 1, 2003. I was hit from behind. Damages to my car were around $1,500. The other driver’s car looked very bad. Anyways for some reason I did not even think about getting a lawyer or legal help. I was 5 months pregnant at the time of the accident and started medical treatment right away. I was in so much pain, that at times I could not even get out of bed. I spoke to the drivers at fault insurance twice. Well today I got a message on my phone from them (PROGRESSIVE) stating that they were attempting to close my claim and they wanted to pay me $2,000 for my E.R. bills, $300 loss wages (because I am self employed), $500 pain an stuffing.
For one thing my E.R bill was $3,967, my lost wages being self- employed so far $4,390 ( I write quotes for constructions sites),my Chiropractic care has reached $4,745. Now my doctor wants me to see a specialist for pain that wont go away. I don't know what I should do. I haven't found to many lawyers who seems to want my case because of time lapse. I don't know really what my rights are. I am thinking of closing within my insurance policy so I can get the best of my claim and all my medical bills paid. Anyone have any suggestions? Who is responsible for paying the medical bills? What should I use to prove income? What about pain and suffering amounts? Do they treat woman who are pregnant different.
