Shouldn't the doctor be paid either by my insurance on my job or my auto insurance, or the person who was at fault insurance. |
My response:
Are you looking for money, or are you looking for a "level playing field" ?
Unless you know the laws, and are a skilled negotiator, and know which evidence is important, then what you'd be doing is pitting yourself against an adjuster and / or a lawyer that defend claims for a living.
There are no guarantees in life; however, if experience is any guide, I'll tell you that I've seen more people get screwed by insurance adjusters than I care to say.
Good luck, and make the right decision for yourself.
