Is a chiropractor the way to go if you have a neck and back injury due to a car accident.?

14 Aug

I was in a car wreck and the insurance company only offered me 1,000 dollars for my injuries and inconvenience. So I called an attorney, and he sent me to a chiropractor. Due to my injuries he wants me to attend physical therapy with him 3 days a week. I was just wondering if this is going to be covered by my claim and will I get money for my self to get my life back in order.

Michigan: I’m in serious trouble and need to know how to protect myself against a personal injury lawsuit.?

06 Aug

I have an incredible mess. I had an automobile accident and was not insured. The man is now suing me. My primary home is currently in foreclosure but I have a 2nd home (paid for) that I just moved into and have yet to homestead it. My question is if I file for bankruptcy, will this protect the home I am now living in? What about a trust or transfer of property? Can I still get the house homestead and will this protect me? What can I do to prevent a forced sale should a lien be placed on the house in a judgement? Please help, I’m currently an unemployed single mother and very scared.

How much of a personal injury settlement can my attorney keep?

25 Jul

I was involved in a car accident and substained injury to my knee. I was awarded $25,000 for pain and suffering. My attorney is giving me $6,500, keeping 75%! This seems ridiculously high, how much can lawyers charge? I was under the impression that no more than 35%.

Personal injury attorneys: Good, bad, or indifferent?

21 Jun

These lawyers claim to be good hearted individuals who are only interested in pursuing justice. To prove their commitment, they are willing to work for free until a favorable settlement is achieved. What cash poor accident victim could refuse such a noble proposition?

Please consider: Nobody works for free.

These lawyers are able to cherry pick their cases based upon how lucrative their practices are. No competent lawyer will accept a personal injury case unless they are sure of a settlement. Also consider that the lawyer will typically receive 60% of the settlement plus their expenses (taken off of the top). The kindly lawyer will end up receiving upwards of 70% of the settlement, leaving a miserable ~30% for the person who actually was injured (talk about adding insult to injury).

If you doubt me, then just try to hire a personal injury attorney on a hourly basis. They make so much more by working on “CONTINGENCY” that you won’t have any takers.
Gunny T: You are incorrect. I am making no assumptions regarding juries, judges or attorneys in general. I am specificly questioning the motives and manner in which PERSONAL INJURY attorneys operate.

Sounds to me like you are making some assumptions yourself.
1) Are you absolutely positive that the plantiff’s attny was working pro bono vs on contingency?
2) How do you know that the jury voted against a just decision in order to watch television?
It sounds to me as if you are a little biased as to your specific case. Perhaps you were the plantiff?
