What is the name of your state? WA
I was in a car accident in October of 2004. It was a hit and run where the guy ran the red light and then took off. I was 7 months pregnant. I have had many problems with my back since. A year after the accident Allstate stopped paying for any medical care but luckily I found a chiropractor who saw me for awhile for free.
I have an attorney who has tried to settle the case. They have offered me $17,279. $10,000 of that is for Allstate's subrogation claim for medical expenses.
I am still in need of medical but cannot pay for it on my own. The atty says it is a soft tissue injury and that Allstate declines to pay any more than what is offered. I don't understand them taking $10,000 though. Isn't that point of having the insurance?
I have this check sitting here and I refuse to sign it or do anything with it because I think this a bunch of BS.
What can I do about this?
