Legal Question in Insurance Law in Virginia
Car Accident
Dear Law Guru,
I was in a fender bender a month ago. I was pulling into the parking space, no cars around me was pulling out. All of a sudden, I see her big car backing out towards me. I stopped and honked my horn, but she kept going and hit me. I asked for her insurance but wouldn�t give it to me. I then said then I will have to call the police, that�s when I proceeded to Rite Aid to call the police. The police took the statement and asked us to call the insurance. My insurance wouldn't help me because they claim I only have liability and would have to work it out with hers. Her insurance declined my claim after a month based on what she only said,which didn't make sense, they didnt' investigate my car. Do I have any other recourse I can take? Thank You.

Re: Car Accident
You can sue her for the damage to your car. Her insurance company will defend her, and if you can prove her liable, it will pay the judgment.
