So my girlfriend was driving my car and got rear-ended. She wasn’t on my insurance.The other party already paid to get my car fixed but my girlfriend suffered a herniated disc in her spine and major whiplash. Would they still be liable to pay for the medical expenses, pain and suffering, etc?
Your girlfriend should definitely speak with a personal injury lawyer. it may not matter at all that she was not on your insurance. But if she has a herniated disc, she may have a good personal injury claim against the other driver. When she calls the lawyer, she can also ask whether she may be eligible to receive any other type of benefits such as short-term disability, long-term disability, Social Security disability, or any other type of disability benefit. If she wants a free consultation, all she needs to do is ask. Eric A. Shore
