What is the name of your state? CA
I was in a car accident on 08/04/05, I was not at fault so the guilty parties insurance company paid the damage to my car, however they would not pay the Chiropractor_s bill, it came up to $5000.00.
After months of trying to get the insurance company to pay they finally sent my lawyer a letter saying that they would not pay because there was no way I could have gotten so badly injured if my car damage was not that much ($1600.00).
After more months my layer dropped me and no one wanted to take my case_ every lawyer I contacted said I would have a better chance to get reimbursed if I took it to small claims.
So here is my question_.
Can I also sue for pain and suffering? In reality 2 years later I still have shoulder pain, I stopped treatment because I was not getting better and with not knowing if my bills were going to be paid I didn_t want to raise the bill even more.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks,
