You’re looking at a settlement and someone told you that your health insurance company wants money back from it. Maybe you got a letter you didn’t understand. Maybe your attorney mentioned subrogation and moved on before you fully processed what that meant for the number you’re going to walk away with. Maybe you’ve been paying […]

The police report is wrong. Maybe the officer got the sequence of events backwards, or recorded the other driver’s account as fact when it was self-serving fiction, or put you at fault for something that didn’t happen the way it’s described, or simply made a clerical error that now follows the accident record in a […]

You didn’t get their names. Maybe the accident was chaotic and you were hurt and getting witness information was not the thing your brain prioritized. Maybe someone said they saw what happened but left before you could ask them anything. Maybe you exchanged information with the other driver and got into your car and the […]

The accident happened in a parking lot, or a private driveway, or a business campus, or some other piece of property that wasn’t a public road, and someone has told you, or you’ve assumed, that the rules are different here. Maybe the responding officer said they couldn’t write a ticket because it was private property. […]

You were hit by someone who probably should not have been driving. Maybe they had a suspended license. Maybe they had prior DUIs and you found that out afterward.

You are receiving treatment you need, or you need treatment you cannot yet afford, and the at-fault driver’s insurance company is not paying anything […]

You were a passenger. You were injured. And now you’re trying to figure out whether you have the right to pursue compensation from the driver of the car you were in, especially if that driver is a friend, a family member, or someone you have an ongoing relationship with that makes this whole thing feel […]

Someone has suggested, or you have started to worry on your own, that you might share some of the blame for what happened. Maybe the police report mentions something about your driving. Maybe the other driver is claiming you did something that contributed to the collision. Maybe you yourself are not entirely sure that you […]

You received a settlement offer and something about it doesn’t sit right. Maybe the number feels low relative to what you’ve been through. Maybe you’re not finished with medical treatment and the offer would close your claim before you know what recovery actually looks like. Maybe someone told you to reject it but didn’t tell […]

You are trying to figure out how much coverage the other driver has, and the insurance company is not telling you, or they are telling you it is not their practice to disclose that information, or they are simply not responding to the question at all. And you are wondering whether that is legal, whether […]
