UPS has paid nothing. They maintain she was at fault for making an illegal U-Turn. The police report holds the UPS driver at fault.
She talked to an ambulance chaser (some lawyers are called this occasionally for those unfamiliar with the term) who wanted her to go to Physical Therapy. Why? "It will help you win your case." My granddaughter does not need physical therapy; the crook clinic was located too far from her work anyway to be of use, even if she wanted to participate in the sham, which she doesn't.
She has a $3K estimate for repairs; all she wants is for UPS to pay the bill. It appears her best avenue is Maryland small claims court, where the internet page advises one to name the President of UPS as defendant and serve the RA, a firm in Baltimore. The court issues a Writ of Summons, which along with the complaint and supporting documents must be verifiably delivered to the President in NYC. She is currently attempting to see if the police officer who responded would be willing to be a witness or supply an affidavit that no illegal U-Turn was a factor in this case.
Obviously, the point is to just be enough of a nuisance that they will settle. My question has to do with how Maryland Small Claims Court handles foreign Corporations. Any difference between those and Maryland corps?
