| Topic | How much $$$ should I expect to collect from the guy who rear ended me? |
| Snrkiko 08/24/19 6:46:19 PM #2: | how fast were they going when they hit you? any injuries? any residual soreness or numb extremities? stiffness? did that doctor say anything about followups? and yes, since this is a rear ender liability is certain on their insured so they'll want to pay you some nominal amount to get you to agree not to sue. plaintiff's firms love rear enders because liability is pretty much a given, but if you pursue that route you'll likely be subjected to lots of bs doctors visits and probably steroid injections to pump up the "damages" for you to claim. the treatment will likely all be on a lien basis as well. at the very least don't accept the first number they offer you. you can demand maybe double (or more) and see what their response is... but you also run the risk of them calling their bluff and being left with nothing unless you retain a lawyer. and if you do intend to lawyer up, absolutely do NOT talk to their insurance company at all. i am not your lawyer nor am i advocating an unnecessary lawsuit (hell I'm a defense attorney), but don't let the insurance company lowball you for the loss of your car, etc. --- ...Snrk.
