Is it too late to file a claim on an auto accident if it happened a month ago?

Answered by attorney Steven A. Schwartz
Personal Injury lawyer at Joel H. Schwartz, P.C.
In Massachusetts, the initial $2000 in reasonable and necessary medical bills is paid by the car insurance of the car you are in. This portion of the insurance policy is called personal injury protection benefits. It will also pay 75% of your lost wages, as well. Any medical bills above and beyond $2000 would then have to be submitted to any private health insurance you have. Have your doctor submit his/her bills and records to this insurance company. As far as hiring an attorney, I don't know how many you have talked to, but I would suggest you keep trying.

How much should I ask for on my slip and fall personal injury case?

Travis S Prestwich
Answered by attorney Travis S Prestwich (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Swanson Lathen Prestwich, PC
Even with injuries as serious as yours, I would think $80,000 would be on the high side if that is what you are expecting to have in your pocket when all is said and done. Oregon is a pretty conservative state when it comes to jury awards. Your lawyer should be able to give you a good assessment as to what a jury is likely to do with your case and, therefore, calculate what your case is worth now.

What can I do to speed up my personal injury case?

Personal Injury lawyer at Dordick Law Corporation
Nothing can be done usually until your medical treatment has been completed and all bills and records are in the hands of your attorney. If you have completed treatment, ask your attorney if he has obtained the records from each health care provider. If not, offer your assistance to get that moving. If you are claiming loss of earnings, you need to give your attorney the wage information or other documentation to support the loss. Once your attorney has all of this information, the attorney can prepare a demand letter and start the negotiation process.
