honey luv. thx. yes i have police reports, soap notes from doctors, medical reports, er report, all bills, xray files and copies. it is other driver’s fault b/c of failure to yield. this was a head on accident and occurred early morning. would i be reimbursed for out of pocket expenses and should i include that in my medical expenses or not?
is it too late for pain and suffering? i had someone tell me it was.

Several days ago, I was a passenger in car accident. We had the right of way at traffic light (green light), crossing the intersection and going straight and someone from Left Hand Side Ran Red Light and Hit Us. I went to the hospital for Back Pain, Knee Pain, Chest Pains and diagnosed as Severe Contusions. Does this also count towards Bodily Injury? What claim can I make, If any?
Several days ago, I was a passenger in car accident. We had the right of way at traffic light (green light), crossing the intersection and going straight and someone from Left Hand Side Ran Red Light and Hit Us. The Police Report has been also obtained and other driver has been found at fault. The situation is complicated, as other driver had Unexpired Tags, Unexpired Insurance, Unexpired Registration. I went to the hospital for Back Pain, Knee Pain, Chest Pains and diagnosed as Severe Contusions (Crushing of Tissue in Knee and Chest). Does this also count towards Bodily Injury? What claim can I make, If any?
In terms of the Vehicle, The Front of Vehicle was totally engulfed in Flame, as Engine Blew Up. Also, the Front of car is totally smashed in.
In terms of the Accident, It occured in State of New Jersey. I have my own Drivers License, Car and Insurance through State of Delaware, as I have legal residence there. Why not go to lawyer?

also yes, they have never mad an offer at all in a year and a half. i basically want this to be over since two years will be november.
again, should i start at 3x medical expenses or what number?
should i expect to be reimbursed for all the money i have put out thus far. i have no health insurance, so it has been a huge burden.

I was in a car accident. My car was totalled and I was NOT at fault.
My daughter and I were both transported to hospital via ambulance to be checked but no major injuries other than slight concussion and contusions.
I got a lawyer but now I have no idea what is going on…
The lawyer is looking for a settlement but how does that work? Someone told me they triple the amount of the bills.
Also, do they make the check out to me and I write my bills to the hospital or do they do it??
How long should all this take? I had the wreck October 16.
And btw KR… nowhere on here did I say I WANTED 3 times the med bills. I said someone told me that. I am not suing the man. I take offense to what you said. I was raised in a God loving home with honest moral values. I would never sue ANYONE unless it was necessary. I just want to know the process the lawyer has to go through. GET OFF UR SOAPBOX.
Gosh thats whats wrong with people these days, ppl like you complaining about everything before you even know the story. Dont Assume!
And KR how dare you tell me that it is taking food off another persons table. I AM A SINGLE MOTHER who cant get a dime of child support by the father. NOT A DIME, I dont want to hear about feeding children. I know the pain of that. And no before you assume I dont have welfare either,, I dont like hand outs. I am 23 have no help from my parents and I didnt know what else to do. I certainly cannot talk to an insurance company as I have no idea how to handle the situation. I know the lawyer has to make his money but with about 10 thouosand worth of doctor bills I have to know that they are going to be payed.
