I'll try to help you if you give me a call. Unfortunately the amount of insurance coverage appears to be insufficient to cover all your medical expenses and outstanding bills exceed the recovery by $14000.

What most attorneys try to do is to negotiate a resolution with the creditors where everyone compromises their claim and receives a percentage of their claim, including the attorney and you...
