Regulation of accidents.? I was in a minor accident last month.The damage, my car was $ 600. I was parked in front of Office Depot and a guy hit my car while I was in the car! I was out of the car, my body was turned to the right. I had some pain on my left side back and I went to the chiropractor a few times. Now, the guy offered me insurance is not any regulation of the injury. They say that because it happened in the parking lot, there was not enough momentum to cause serious injury. I am gypped? can someone help?
Note:
I do not know if that helps. but I was in a three-car accident in September 2006. I was the one in the middle .. i have a little Honda .. I was struck by a town and country van. I had some back pain so bad enough.
Did you contact your insurance company? The reason is that they can guide you on your rights.
Damage to your car are minimal on the basis of $ 600. even if you were in an accident in 2006, they may think that your injury has aggravated the injury from 2006 and the value of your injury is much less.
In addition, depending on where you live, there may be a thresshold "to answer your injuries. In some states, unless your injury is serious, they should not pay you for your injury. You have this we call a soft tissue injury or whiplass.
Call your insurance company and, as I said, they will guide you if you qualify.
Also, others will come and say a lawyer. do not do it. they take one third of any settlement if you qualify. the proposal of your treatment, say a few hundred dollars to the chiropractor. Companys most one could consider a few hundred dollars to settle.
good luck

If you do not agree with the settlement, hire a lawyer.
