What is the name of your state? CA
A 17 year old teenager ran a red light and hit my car. His insurance company has claimed 100% liability. I took my car to a repair shop of my choice and an adjuster from his insurance company did an estimate and told me that the labor rates at that shop are higher than the prevailing labor rates that they have. She told me that I may have to pay for the difference. I'm getting really upset at this and I've decided to go through my insurance company and have them subrogate my claim with the other insurance company.
I have whiplash, shoulder and back pain and have notified the other insurance company about it. They told me to go for treatment and request my chiropractor if he can hold the bills until the treatment is over and they will compensate me for the bills plus for pain and suffering. However with how they're treating me, I'm quite apprehensive about telling my chiropractor to hold the bills since the other person's insurance company my screw me and I would end up with the bills. Can I just have my medical insurance pay for this but still claim for pain and suffering from the other insurance company? I don't have medical in my car insurance.
I'd appreciate any info you could give me regarding this. I am so angry and frustrated dealing with the other person's insurance company.
Thanks!
