Re: how to file a lawsuit

You draft and file a petition with the courthouse where the accident occurred or where the defendant lives.

I also would not assume that the case will be settled--especially after you file suit. Once you file suit, the insurance compnay will get an attorney involved, who will answer the suit and begin the discovery process.

Good luck
