I am going to give you a short description. I was a the passenger. Driver lost control of vehicle, the vehicle flipped numerous times, I slipped out of seat belt and was ejected . No broken bones, but I have deep lacerations on my foot down to the bone which will leave to scarring. Stitches above left eye and will scar. Stitches in about 4 other places that will also leave scars. So far I have missed a month of work and when I return I will not be able to perform my duties as fast as I had in the past due to injured foot. Nerve damage all over body. Bruised lung and 19,000 worth of medical bills. Their coverage only covers 10 grand. So do you think it would be in my best interest to hire a lawyer (well aware that they can take a third of the settlement) and what do you think I can get in a case like this. This happened in the state of WA.
The driver was at fault...they figured he was going well over a 100 mph. I am aware that all I am entitled to is what it states in their policy. They mentioned as well that I am going to receive a check for pain and suffering so that is where I figured a lawyer would help me so I don't get the short end of the stick. I am the one who has to live with facial and other bodily scars not to mention the loss of my big toe nail...and all of the nerve damage. Not to sound greedy but I am entitled to be whole again...in the same shape as I was before the accident. Thanks for the advice but I am sorry I am not going to listen to what a claims adjuster has to say because you are only looking out for the insurance company and not the victim of the accident. Your only interest is how to pay out the least amount of money possible with the hopes that the victim will sign on the dotted line.
