My stepdaughter was involved in a motor vehicle accident the Friday before Thanksgiving. The other driver failed to yield ROW turning left and she struck the trailer he was pulling at about 6 AM. Air bag went off, broke her right wrist,car is totaled and 6 missed 6 days of work. Guy got a ticket of course and told the officer when he got it he was gonna fight it. His insurance has denied the claim because he is going to plead not guilty.
My insurance, State Farm, has already issued a claim number for the medical part, but in the meantime she is borrowing her grandmother's car. She'd a single mom and just started nursing school today. She's gonna need a new to her car, but she can't afford much.
I'm out my deductible and possibly a rental car for her until State Farm collects from the other insurance which I have no idea how long that will take.
I'm a level headed guy and don't want anything other than for things to be done right for her. But, I'm starting to get a little hot under the collar. This idiot seems to think he's gonna get the ticket thrown out, but I guess he doesn't realize his crash is prima facie evidence that he failed to yield. In the meantime, I'm the one stuck with the bills and the headache of having to deal with it.
Anyone ever use one of the "accident injury lawyers" like Thomas J Henry or Davis Law Firm? I'm giving serious thought to this.
Thanks in advance!
