Question:
The accident was not my fault, but the other driver did not have insurance. My left hand was fractured at the pinky knuckle and also lower in my hand at the middle finger. I was in a splint for 8 weeks, and went to see a physical therapist for only two weeks. I still have pain in the pinky knuckle and cannot bend it as far as the right hand. The doctor told me that I will most likely have severe arthritis when I get older (I am 26 now). I was only out of work for three days, but I had to be on restricted duty for a month. I had a hard time buttoning and pulling up my pants, as well as fixing my hair. It took me an extra half hour to hour to get ready every day. I want to know what to expect from the insurance company.
Answers:
depends on what the driver that hit you had from medical liability...if the min. i believe its like 10, 000..i could be wrong though...but it does depend on the drivers insurance.
I hope you created a report with that agency, they usually deny claims after a year of the accident.
If it was more than a year, you may be able to win in small claims for medical bills, and possibly future physical therapy.
Where can you submit damage claims to the WV state road?
Oh ok, i misread-
no insurance go right to small claims for the medical bills and physical therapy. Get letter from your doctors on how the injury will affect your life, and what care you will need from on.\
Take care.
How do I find out who a vehicle tag is registerd to, is there a place where I can search on the net?
You can absolutely claim the cost of your necessary treatment, and the days you missed work. You *might* be able to get extra for pain and suffering, but there is no formula or absolute right that you will. What is YOUR insurance agent recommending as a fair settlement?The insurance policy is intended to cover your losses, not to make you a millionaire. Add up the unpaid time you lost from work, your medical costs not covered by insurance, any legal fees, any misc. expenses for having the car towed and disposed of, using a taxi or bus to get around until you got a new car, and a small amount for pain and suffering, and you'll have some idea of what to expect.
Did you know that everyone driver license is on line if yours is there delete it?
Sorry to tell you this, but if the other driver was at fault, and had no insurance, you will get nothing from your insurance company. Your claim is against the other driver. If he has no coverage, he probably has no assets either. the best you will do is get a lien on him, should he ever have assets, but no atty is going to take that case on contingency, and would charge you $2-4000 upfront.Youre screwed im afraid.
Placed note on car after crash but no response?
If the other driver did not have insurance, you have to carry uninsured motorist coverage. Then you have to sue your own insurance company to pay you. A lawyer won't bother going after an individual, because they won't be able to collect any money. They are only interested in their bottom line.What is a good car for a 17 year old. and what is the cheapest insurance?
It's not a bad injury, it may not be worth pursuing. You can talk with a personal injury lawyer. They consult for free.
