I live in Florida. Two years ago I was in an accident. The other driver pulled out in front of me from a side street while I was driving on the busy street. I couldnt stop in time and I hit him on the passenger side on the front of the car. I had the ambulance take me to the hospital to be checked out. Xrays showed no damage The officer told me other driver was at fault 100% for not yielding right of way. I did have some soreness and neck and back discomfort. Got a lawyer went to chiropractis care for 6 months. Had a cat scan showed nothing. No surgery was needed. I didnt need injections. I didnt break anything or lost an arm or leg. No permanent injuries. I was lucky. The lawyer reached a settlement with the insurance company, I got $13,000.00 in my pocket. Husband very irate and wants more money and that I should have the lawyer renegotiate or sue or find another lawyer. I did talk to a another firm and they feel my case is not worth it. Husband and I are not on good terms, I tried telling him that because I am not permanently disabled and had no surgery, my case was not worth much.

Jz I need help man, am in Florida and I got rear ended. I have dash cam showing proof of everything. My first lawyer was not very communicative, and now my second lawyer wants to settle for the liability amount. 10k is their max. And I have uninsured coverage 10k so the lawyer wants me to settle for 20k total. I have MRI results showing I have a herniated disk and a bad shoulder injury with broken ligaments all around. I will need surgery. But the lawyer doesn’t want me to get surgery and apparently doesn’t want to go to court either to fight for more. Can you advice me here? Can you join my case and get me more than what they offer?

@@mistergent7 What do the MRIs specifically show is wrong with your brain? Who is her insurance company? I would be nervous about surgery also. Yes, you may still win even if you don't get surgery. Your attorney is the best person for you to ask the odds of you winning. He or she knows much more than the limited facts that you've given me. Just ask him or her.

Terry Cool: Thank you for your comment. I don't know the value of your claim. A personal injury claim value depends many factors. Two huge factors are liability and damages. Liability is whether someone else (or a company) was negligent. Damages are the extent of your injury. While you've given me some information, I don't know fully know the liability and damages aspects of your claim. An attorney cannot fully understand liability and damages by reading a sentence (or more) about the facts of an incident. You should hire a lawyer who can: 1. Review your medical records, bills and other documents 2. Take photos of your injuries, damages to vehicle(s) and any other evidence. 3. Properly preserve evidence. 4. Speak with witnesses (and get statements). 5. Reduce the amount (if any) that you need to pay back your health insurer for bills that it paid. 6. Do much, much more. I haven't had a chance to speak with you and review your claim. Thus, I also don't know if you have a workers' compensation claim (or other claim). Note: I wish you good luck. You should contact an attorney immediately. There is a time limit to sue. If you miss the time limit, you forever lose your right to sue. I am not expressing any opinion on your particular case.
