Legal Question in Personal Injury in North Carolina
Attempting to settle auto claim
I was hit virtually head on by a lady last April. I have tried to negotiate with the adjuster on my own and am getting nowhere, she is crazy. currently she is offering medical($10,000) Time lost from work ($1300) and P&S ($4700). I've done an MRI, PT, Injections and still do not feel %100. I may have future epenses because of this. She also adimantly claims that bulging discs could not have been caused by the wreck. I am 26, and have never experienced any back pain up until this accident. What do I do? Shoul I settle? Should I go back to the doctor for more documentation, possibly more treatment? I want to settle this and be done with them, but at the same time, my back still hurts and the pain does limit some of my activities.
