Need to know if i can go after more
If my attorney at this time is going after personal injury only, what about compensation for paying off remaining balance on my old car and money for my new car?

If you were personally injured in a car accident and your vehicle damaged as well, recovery for both should be pursued against the person responsible. However, you're not going to get the payoff amount for the wrecked vehicle nor money for a new car, but, rather most likely the fair market value of the vehicle at the time of the accident(assuming it was totaled and which you'll have to pay over to the note holder)in addition to compensation for your medical bills and a reasonable recovery for your pain and suffering.
