I have two hit-and-run involved for years. I was sitting behind a car was waiting, turn left and go back was far from a jeep end over the speed limit. I was six months pregnant, at the time. The man ran away, but I took his license plate and knew because he was my neighbor. I went to the hospital because the baby was real active, and I bruised my hip and the back of my head. You do not really have anything for me, but removed the baby and everything went well. My car has been achieved, and it hurts my back.
I then had the doctors for orthopedic care and obstetrician, PIP, went to pay anything too seriously. I immediately got a lawyer. She caught the man and two weeks later made into account. It turns out that he drove on a revoked license. My lawyer has tried to deal with Geico (my insurance). Ms driver was uninsured Maryland Auto Insurance Fund, which will begin a car insurance for driving with a bad driving. Geico offered $ 1,900, then $ 2,700. After about a year ago, my lawyer my account to a different lawyer. I had to go through the whole game, tell them what happened and everything. After a year with Geico has offered them $ 3,600, and now in 4500 for pain and suffering. Everything I installed on my lawyer 33.13%. My lawyer and expert on Geico play phone tag. I am not happy w / my lawyer, because they never called me to tell me something … I. I was pregnant during the accident and could not enjoy the rest of my pregnancy for fear that something could be with my baby … my previous was a mistake. I could not provide the right care (X-ray, CT, etc.), because first the child. The problem here is that I do not ask, the lawyer and you want better results. The lawyer will not let me talk settlement for $ 4500, promising he can not get over me. The thing is, if he files suit, regardless of 33.13% is 40%. Should I settle or go to another lawyer, and when to control myself, I would not apply to a lawyer before paying?
I know you will not like my answer and I know before I do, I’m starting to jump, but take the money. All of these fantastic facilities you can be seen on movies and television is just entertainment movie The cold reality is that if you and your baby are OK and there are a few more are waiting. If you think you can get more, then you tell the lawyer what you settle for, but keep your hopes on a huge amount. In cases such as $ 5,000 is about as much as you can expect.
