I was injured in a car accident in January. The damage to my car was about $19,000. The lady who hit me had no insurance
So my insurance paid $25K (the limit) under PIP. My own health insurance (Medicare) paid around $13K. The insurance agent said underinsured will cover the $13K owed to Medicare plus pay me for pain and suffering.
I never thought it would add up to $38k or I might have used one of the 30 attorneys that bombarded me with mailings.
Can someone give me an approximate number they will offer me. They said it would be "normal-usual-customary" I'd like to have some idea and if it's to low, I'd like to be able to tell them. Whether a lawyer would take this case or not, I'm not interested in using one unless I have to.
I get my final release on Tuesday, and then the settlement offer will be presented within a week, I was told.
Thanks Angie
