Dear Anonymous,
The answer to your question depends on several things. First, did you sign a release? If the insurance company was settling your claim in its entirety, they would have insisted that you sign a release, absolving the insurance company and their insured from any further liability. However, if the check was just for medical payments, or property damage, then you may still be able to recover additional sums. Lastly, how long ago was the accident? In Indiana, the statute of limitations for torts is two years, with certain limited exceptions. As always, it is important to discuss your case with an experienced personal injury attorney. If you have specific questions, please do not hesitate to call me.
Sincerely,
Chip Clark
