Legal Answers
- Q. Iwas hit head on by a dui driver. I'm having Trouble findingattorney that willget anything but their insurance cov. Wtd
- A: Michael is correct. If your attorney has already sent a demand to the insurance company for the drunk driver, and they paid, then you can seek money from your own UM/UIM (underinsured motorist) coverage. This is insurance that you can buy (before an accident) to provide you with extra money if the negligent driver does not have enough insurance coverage to "make you whole". If all the insurance companies send you timely settlement checks, and they do not act in bad faith, then typically that is all the money you will be able to recovery, regardless of the extent of your injuries. However, if the liability carrier acts in bad faith, then you can potentially get an "excess verdict" ... Read More
- Q. 16month old child drowns in bathtub while mom who is actively cooperating with a drug investigation not charged
- A: Any time a child dies, it's tragic. Certainly, there may be a civil case (personal injury case) of some sort here, but it's hard to tell based on these facts alone. For the parent(s) or guardian of the child, a civil suit is something you could discuss with an experienced attorney. I recommend that you consult an attorney immediately.
- Q. Hurt at work since 8/11/23 an now 01/22/24 an not 1 payment received ! Lawyer up still in pain an now they saying L Duty
- A: I think you answered your own question. If you have a serious injury at work, lawyer up. Immediately. This does not mean that every injury requires a lawyer. But if you legitimately need back surgery, then you needed a lawyer yesterday.
Before I started representing hurt workers, I used to teach insurers how to ruin someone's case before they could hire a lawyer. If you are wondering whether your employer's risk management department is going to "do right" by you, they probably won't, and you shouldn't bet your spine on it. Good luck, and I hope you feel better.
