What is the name of your state? Nevada
Hello,
I will try to make this as short as possible. I was rear ended by a person in a full size truck going atleast 35mph while I was stopped in my mid sized car. The person tried to flee immediatley but I caught and followed him just as fast and called the police and they got his plate and etc.
I returned to the scene of the accident and there were witnesses, police reports were filed and the guy addmitted the mistake and horrible thing he did but he ended up blaming it on intestine problems
Anyways, I go to the chiropractor for over 3 months and end up going 3 times a day and made great progress. My injuries were to the neck, shoulder, mid back and lower black. Mainly headaches, soft tissue and some nerve stuff which hasn't really gone away but has been treated enough and there isn't much they can possibly do now. Still hurts a little but not as much. It has been 6 months since the accident and my attorney is trying to settle with the at fault insurance party which the at fault person carried commercial high limit insurance.
The insurance company is offering me only $12,000 gross. I am told that I can't get my $860 in the two months worth of car payments that I had to pay while I had no car and also my insurance payments that were $220 for the two months. My medical bills were $6,000.
Bottom line is I am still hurt and I know these headaches and back pains will creep up on me for a long time. They come and go. I feel that I am getting screwed with this insulting amount of compensation. I feel I deserve more than that just for having to chase the guy down. My attorney is telling me that this is all I can get and is trying to rush me and is being anything other than my advocate. What would you go for and what do you think of this situation, what would you do? Your input is valued.
Thanks.
