You cannot argue with a fool; he will drag you down to his level and then beat you with his experience. You get your own lawyer and do NOT talk to the adjuster until you can set it up with your own lawyer.... Read More

Answered 13 years and 11 months ago by Mr. Richard Alan Alsobrook (Unclaimed Profile)   |   1 Answer   |  Legal Topics: Personal Injury
You should see an attorney immediately. Each case is different, and needs to be examined individually.  You may have a claim for additional damages, assuming that you have not already waived your right to future suit.  Also, in each state there is a time limit to file suit.  It is called the statute of limitations.  The attorney should be familiar with the time constraints, and should review any documentation and paperwork you have. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.  ... Read More
