3 weeks ago I posted a thread regarding an accident I was involved in.
Cliff notes:
17 yr old kid ran a red light in the intersection I was going through. My car is a total write off. He is being charged with running the red.
Although there are no "serious" injuries, I have been receiving treatment for whiplash, messed up knee and shoulder (never brace upon impact Not much has helped yet, still in the early stages though. I even bought my first automatic transmission in 16 years. because I can't fully shift
I am already out close to $1000 in missed work, car rental, and I will be continuing treatment well after my 21 appointments.
I have tried to contact his insurance company 3 times and just received a call back today. They claim to have been trying to contact me but there is no record on any of my phone numbers that they had.
A few people have recommended that I contact a personal injury lawyer. At firs,t I didn't think this was a route I wanted to take, but after adding up a few things I have spent money on it may be the way to go to receive proper settlement because my bills will only grow.
I did a quick search through the threads, to avoid asking questions that were already answered, but no one really had any names of decent lawyers.
Thanks again for any advice. This forum has been incredibly helpful during this mess!
Cheers!
