Re: Motorcycle Accident
It depends on several things--how much insurance the woman has (in other words, what her policy limit is), the amount of your past and future medical costs, the amount of pain and suffering you had, any fault you may have had, the facts of the crash (was she on her cell phone, drunk, etc.), if you have any insurance that may cover part of it. It's important in dealing with the insurance company not to sign anything or settle fo the first offer. Many times, they lowball you at first. Feel free to email if you need help.
