If you feel that you are getting compensated adequately for your injury, then by all means settle the claim. However, if you don't I suggest you consult with an attorney. However, be advised that hiring an attorney will cost you 1/3 of your settlement. Generally, speaking they should cover your medical costs, damage to the vehicle, damages for pain and suffering, damages associated with loss of work if any.

You may be entitled to more that you are receiving. If you have medical bills and a neck sprain, there may be future treatment required. What does your doctor say? If you would like to speak with me, please call me.
