who is responsible for getting my car fixed?

Answered 12 years and 7 months ago by Sarah Reese (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Insurance
I recommend you discuss this with your attorney more in depth.   Your attorney should be able to explain to you in depth why they are not handling the property damage side of your case.  It might be that your attorney only agreed to assist you with your medical/personal injury damages and not the property damage aspect.  This is fairly normal but you should seek more clarification from your attorney.  Best of luck!

My daughter's father had a massive heart attack and I know for sure that his daughter was the only benefactor for his insurance

Answered 12 years and 9 months ago by Sarah Reese (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Insurance
Hi.  No, the money should still be considered hers.  However, she likely won't be able to access the money until she is 21 years old.   A trust will need to be set up in her name, etc.  I recommend you contact an attorney who handles trusts and estates.  I am not sure where in MS you are located, but here are some names on the Gulf Coast.  Pringle & Roemer in Biloxi (228) 374-1747 or Evelyn Floyd in Gulfport (228) 863-0522.  Best of luck!

How to collect money from life insurance

Answered 12 years and 10 months ago by Sarah Reese (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Insurance
You will likely need to have an Estate set up for your son since he must be 21 in order to collect the insurance proceeds.  A Family Law or Estate lawyer can help you with that.  Once the Estate is set up, you can then petition the Court to ask for some of the money now.   Court papers will have to be filed with details regarding how much of the money is needed and for what purposes the money will be used for.  If reasonable, the Judge will most likely approve the request and disburse some of the funds.  However, the rest will remain with the Court until your son turns 21.  I recommend you contact someone who advertises they practice Family or Estate law, particularly someone in your local area.  Best of luck!
