If I knew then what I know now...
Never expected much of a settlement. A very young irresponsible man hit us. We didn't figure he'd have much of a policy. He didn't have his own insurance but was covered by his mothers insurance. We were surprised with the policy but it is still a drop in the bucket compared to my injuries and what I've lost. They gave me policy limits immediately. My lawyer has been going through medical bills and subrogation. I have a lot of medical bills. Turns out the lawyers, doctors, and my health insurance (mostly them) with get all of my settlement. With subrogation the health coverage from my car insurance does not have to be repaid. But from my private health insurance...all of it. better than nothing policy but I won't see any of it. So we did all of this with the lawyers to pay the lawyes and get my health insurance companies money back and still have big bills to pay after. ???? There is really something very wrong with this. Very disappointed with our laws and broke. Jace
