| HotBlonde Member since: Feb 8, 2011 Threads: 31 Posts: 772 | I don't pay him if the insurance company doesn't pay. A friend of mine works for an insurance company and has so for years. Coincidentally she is going to call me any second now. So far she told me for a case like this I will most likely get paid 5k-7k. I have hospital bills now and will be seeing a chiropractor and getting therapy treatments as well.She said this is what is usually paid out and that the only time someone gets the full $15k from the person's liability coverage is if the victim was severely injured.

Don't expect it anytime soon, these things usually take 6 months minimum. One casino owner to another: "It would be so much easier if we could just hit them over the head, steal their money, and throw their bodies in the creek." Al Swearengen, Deadwood |

| HotBlonde Member since: Feb 8, 2011 Threads: 31 Posts: 772 | Yeah she told me 2 months if I was doing this on my own but 6-9 months with my attorney. "...see and think about yourself as the master of your own fate..." - Brian Tracy |

Ask her how much of the 5-7k you get to keep. From my experience, the insurance company gets paid back off the top for your medical expenses and you get whats left.

| EvenBob Member since: Jul 18, 2010 Threads: 231 Posts: 6400 | The same insurance company thats paying the medical bills is paying you? I don't know how it works in CA, in my state your car insurance covers any accident involving a motor vehicle, even a bike accident. Did you get a police report at the scene? This goes a long way to getting a fast settlement. No matter how much you think you're going to get, or how fast you think you'll get it, its never as much as you hoped and always takes longer than anticipated. Personally, doing it without a lawyer is asking to get screwed. They'll get you more money, a lot more, and you won't get screwed over. They'll take part of the settlement, but without a lawyer you might get nothing. At least talk to a good accident attorney, it costs nothing.

| HotBlonde Member since: Feb 8, 2011 Threads: 31 Posts: 772 | Well I submit all my bills and the insurance company will pay a lump sum. A portion of that goes to my lawyer and the rest to me but then I have to pay all my bills from what is left over after paying my lawyer. I'm already in contract with a lawyer.

You mean you have to pay the medical bills out of the settlement after you get it? That doesn't sound right, nobody would pay the hospital. Usually the med bills get paid first, the lawyer next, and then you get whats left over.
