FAQs

Car and Tractor Trailer Accidents

How long should I want to hear back from an adjuster for a claim?  I was in an automobile collision where I was not at fault in Aug 2010. I suffered a broken foot where I needed surgery. The adjuster was very nice and indicated he wanted to get this settled quickly. He said I needed to wait until the doctor released me from care before he could settle the claim. In June 20, 2011, I sent him a letter with a packet of photos, copies of medical bills, pay stubs, explanation of the collision, etc. I also told him I expected to hear back from him 30 days from the date of the letter. On July 20th, 2011, He left a phone message saying he needed to get the medical bills directly from the facilities and needed to contact my health insurance for a lien (since they paid for most of my care). That was the last time I heard from him. It is now Jan 24, 2012 - over 6 months later. I did some research and found that the statute of limitations for personal injury is 6 months from now (2 years after the collision). Is waiting 6+ months to hear back from the adjuster as he collects this information Bad Faith?

Is it a valid excuse that my tire dropped off the shoulder just before I overcorrected, lost control and went over the center line, where the accident happened?

What can I do if I was involved in a car accident with no insurance? On Dec. 17th, I broke my pelvis when a car hit my car head-on. I was turning left at a green light, as though it were a green arrow in a moment of mental lapse. The truck was full speed as the light changed, as he was anticipating it as he approached. I have no insurance, and my plates were expired since I am unemployed, a single mom, and was waiting until after Xmas to take care of these expenses. I was dumb, I know, but what happens now? Am I going to be sued? How is fault determined in this case? Note: his 2003 Ford was also totaled by insurance, but he was uninjured.
