I was rear ended by an uninsured motorist just before Hurricane Charlie. I was hospitalized and released later that evening with strict orders to not lift or do anything physical until I visited a specialist on my back. Well I could not protect my house on Hurricane Charlie's arrival. Then Hurricane Charlie hit and we were with out anything for a month. Once everything started coming back online here I was able to see a chiropractor and a neurologist. Had my first MRI that showed two buldging disk at the time. About a year later of therepy I was ordered for a second MRI. This time shows Degenerative Changes, disk buldging, dehydration all in the L3-L4, L4-L5, L5-S1. After all this I am then being sent over to an Orthopedic Specialist for further observation. I am still waiting to see that doctor.
Out of all of this my Attorney is dealing with my insurance company for me. They are coming back with a very low settlement. In understanding that it could not be known what my future medical needs are, I am concerned what my choices are and or should be. My attorney is also pretty gung-ho about taking this to suit, but is not sure of the determining factor of what I should be compinsated for. To me it seems like my own insurance company is screwing me or I just don't have all the legal information I should have.
I just want to know that I will not have to pay out of pocket in my future like I have been during this whole fiasco. I want to be reimbursed for what I have had to pay out of pocket plus future medical, and my attorney's fees. What my insurance company has offered does not even come close to my property damage, rentals, time out of work, , pain and suffering, and future medical.
Is this to much to ask for???
