QUESTION
I bought a boat. Previous owner is trying to title jump. Can't motivate him to clear this up since December.

More details to this question:
He (TJ) gave me the Michigan title that he signed from the previous sale. It is a clear title. He lives in Illinois. I believe TJ is trying to avoid paying Illinois sales tax on his purchase, as he bought the boat in Spring 2017, and sold it to me (Ron Dickson) in late Fall December 9, 2017. He said he would do whatever I needed, to make it right. I've been getting excuses for months. Now I'm not getting any responses.

You shouldn’t be talking to the insurance company at all about a settlement offer, while you are still treating for your injuries. Do you have photographs or witnesses who can prove the door way was faulty or have hired an engineer to review the premises to prove fault? Without that, if you have to file a lawsuit, your case may be very hard to prove. The statute of limitations for personal injury in WI is 3 years to sue; failure to file a lawsuit within three years from the date of your occurrence will forever bar your claim.
