What is the name of your state? NC
My wife and I were injured in an accident w/a tractor trailer truck. The driver admitted fault. The police report states had/were no contributing factor in factor in it. Our injuries were more substantial than the medical bills would suggest. Everything I've been reading suggests a settlement would be offered based on medical bills. If I were to go to court, does the jury give a rip what the insurance company's standard procedure for calculating P&I is? Do I even get a jury trial? From what I gather , most cases are settled out of court. If this is the case, why spend 35% + on lawer fees? Does anyone know of a source where I can actually read briefs of court cases to see how the work? What about a specific lawer's cases? Not too many questions I hope?
Thanks
