Why on earth would this go to suit?   They have no suit by the way as she has not reached  tort threshold. 

If she gets hooked up with the typical ambulance-chasing PI attorney, she'll get over the threshold on an MRI, a couple of X-rays, biological testing, and a couple of chiropractor sessions for 'tension in the neck' or some such BS.  Given the at-fault impact injury, the PI attorney can run the bill for just testing for and treating a possible soft tissue injury (Oh, they all have pet docs that will give them a diagnosis to at least minimally support it, of course) for 5K easily.  Of course the providers and the PI attorney get the lion's share of it, unless it gets pumped up north of 10K, then the 'Injured' starts to cash in too.  The insurer here is basically just trying to settle for nuisance value quickly.

pretty easy to check if 3rd ACR is rolling to the box.


just sayin.

Don't udnerstand why a soldier in the US Army doesn't have enough money to fly home before a deployment. Hell, half the privates have better cars than I do.

You can't make an offer if they have not reached tort -- or at least they shouldn't, if their state insurance commissioner does audits like they do in MA, then they would be fined for it. 

This is not worth 10K.  PI atty would send her to a chiro or massage therapist, but she missed the boat by not treating or even being seen right away, so this would be a very low claim.

She just took some Motrin, and got better.  This woman is not hurt.  Now, HawkX is just exactly the type of guy who would perpetrate an insurance fraud.  Exactly.

Not only exactly the type but actively seeking advise on how to do it from his fellow scumbags.

A surplus-auction Dodge Intrepid or a minivan scrounged off Craigslist I could believe, but a running '65 Rambler would be worth a lot more than $600.

I dunno.....there's a guy down the road who has a runnin' '65 station wagon for sale at $510. Must have a bill to pay for such an odd amount.

I'm sure you're right about MA, but there's very little commonality (beyond just the elements of tort) from state to state on the exact details of this stuff.

Tort threshold -- while that may be different in each state, it still must be reached for a claim to be made.   This buffoon is an accomplished liar.   The adjuster calling mom to offer payment on a claim that does not belong to mom (whether she owns the policy or not) is bizarre and simply not done.

They only offered 600 bucks?

"Toots" got T-Boned last year and they offered us $6700. Must not be much of an injury or loss!

What was she drivin', a 65 Rambler?
I fracking love Ramblers - especially the pink ones with the push-button auto transmissions.

Reminds me of the song by Diesel--"Sausilito Summer Nights."  Catchy, actually.  I think they were a Dutch group.
"Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of Liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"All you have to do is look straight and see the road, and when you see it, don't sit looking at it - walk!" -Ayn Rand
 
"Those that trust God with their safety must yet use proper means for their safety, otherwise they tempt Him, and do not trust Him.  God will provide, but so must we also." - Matthew Henry, Commentary on 2 Chronicles 32, from Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible

Chase her.
Chase her even when she's yours.
That's the only way you'll be assured to never lose her.
