This is in reference to an auto accident, the other party settled for both property damage and personal injury, the statute of limitations of two years passed, and then four days later a lawsuit is filed. This is the state of Texas, so just wondering if there are exceptions, I guess.

What happens after the demand letter has been sent regarding an auto accident claim?

Does anyone know the time frame that these things take? All I know is my lawyer sent State Farm a demand letter on April 9, about the accident that took place early last year. Do they usually take awhile to respond? Does state farm them give my lawyer a number, or is this for something else?
Any help would be appreciated. Lawyer of course does not tell me anything.

I was not at fault in an accident and had sustained multiple injuries. I had quite a bit of medical bills. My own medical insurance company has covered all of my bills. Will they try to get reimbursed after I settle with my auto insurance? How do they even find out about my settlement?

I was in an auto accident and hired a lawyer to represent me. The insurance companies are (mine & the other motorist) are investgating in order to determine who is at fault… Meanwhile, I’m asking my attorney to see if the other motorist has full coverage, liability, etc… so I can have an idea as to how things are going to play themselves out in regards to my medical bills, and other compensation, etc… The attorney claims that he can’t get the details of the other motorist’s insurance policy to answer my questions. This doesn’t sound right to me. Shouldn’t he, not only be able to obtain their policy, but be working diligently, early on in the process, to obtain this information so he can guage the “possible” compensation that, not only myself, but the docter & himself (the lawyer) may receive? …my injury is a life altering injury and I need to know what options I have in regards to my medical & all other compensation I may be entitled to. I am not the type to blindly allow my lawyer to do as he chooses, while I remain in the dark as to the facts regarding my situation. Please enlighten me…

Medical bills didn’t exceed $800! I have really good medical coverage from my company and they have covered everything from the accident. I will be receiving a settlement check and was just wondering if I need to payback my medical insurance in the state of California……..

auto accident lawsuit after settlement?
01

I was involved in an accident. I was driving a rental car and I bought liability insurance from the rental car company. The accident was largely due to my fault. The other driver claimed damage from a) the car rental company b) his own insurance under UIM. He got paid by his own insurance (about $2000 — the damage that he claimed). He also assigned all rights/tittle in the claim to his insurance company.
One month later he also got a settlement from the car rental company (about $500). He also signed a property damage release form (discharging me and the rental company forever from any claim). But it seems that he did not inform his insurance company about this settlement. In all, he pocketed $2500 from both parties.
Now, his insurance company has sued me and the rental car company for damage ($2000 that they paid to the other driver)? Can we be held liable for this damage, especially if we have a property damage release from the other driver?
Does the date of property damage release matter ?? It was executed one month after he assigned all rights and title of this claim to his own insurance company?
To clarify, there is no injury claim. The only claim was $2000 for property (it was a small accident). That claim got paid by his own insurance because he had UIM coverage. Then later he also got some money for the rental claim and executed a property release.

After an auto accident, do I need a lawyer to get a settlement for bodily injury?
26
May
I was involved in an auto accident where the other party was at fault, and the other parties ins co already admitted fault. I only had liability (never again) and my totalled car had a value of $13000. However, the insured was only covered for up to $10k, shorting me $3k. I have minor scrapes and visible scarring on my head from the airbag hitting my glasses. I really only want the value of my car, but if I have to go through lawyer to get property and bodily injury claims of over $25k, after lawyer fees, what am I left with? I want to settle with the Ins Co directly.
Thank all of you for your help. I want to refrain from getting a lawyer at all costs, but I do only want whats fair to me – my life, which is in tact – and the value for my car. My liability insurance, which I had for less than a year, and full coverage for my whole driving history before that, won’t cover the balance. I don’t want to fake anything with a lawyer or get some phone doctor to write my arm that supposedly fell off recently. I want my car back!! Is small claims my way? Won’t that take forever? Can I plead with the adjuster?
When you get an insurance settlement after a fire, can you use the money to buy a new home instead of rebuild?

home caught on fire . No one was in it. They believe they will be offered a settlement by their insurance company. Do they have to use it to rebuild, or can they demolish the burned house and sell the lot and then buy another house somewhere else?
