You should get an attorney to handle the negotiations for you. You will always end up better off ( in my experience) with an attorney, rather than trying to handle it alone.

Call me if you have additional questions.

My firm handles cases like this all over California. You are a banker, what did you think would happen if you tried to do this case on you own without an attorney? You will only get a 1k offer. There is a reason we personal injury attorneys exist. For a free consultation you may call me at 800-816-1529 x.1. www.thepersonalinjury.com .
