    Fatal Car Wreck

    So is he dead or not?

    small claims court

    So you basically waited from July 04 until now for a final bill without paying the balance, or calling to check on the status, and you are surprised they are taking action against you? Were you hoping it would "go away"? Did you have a formal payment plan setup with the hospital when you sent...

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    With all due respect, please re-read my postings. I am afraid of suing in small claims, having him goto his insurance, having his insurance advise him to take it to regular civil court, have his insurance issue a lawyer, and then at the end be out court costs PLUS attorney's fees on their side...

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    Anyone have an idea of what I might be expected to pay an attorney for him/her to review my case and advise me of my legal standings (or what I might expect to happen)?

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    Well, after looking into it, michigan allows the defendent to petition the court to move the case to the general civil division of the district court, where he could be represented by a lawyer from the insurance company. I'm a bit worried that after telling his insurance company he was served...

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    I appreciate your response and anyone else's. I'm not trying to be difficult, just accurate. As I said in the first post following my question, I know that State Farm won't pay. They are not obligated, either from my end or his end, since I didn't have the extra coverage and Michigan is...

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    Your response is contradictory. Your answer to question #1 implies that State Farms statement that he is not responsible is correct. Yet then you continue to advise to sue him in small claims court. If I can't find him legally responsible then what's the point of that. Am I just not...

    Can I get my money back for rental car from at-fault driver?

    What is the name of your state? Michigan As laid out initially in this post: https://forum.freeadvice.com/showthread.php?t=220650 I was hit on Jan 28th, other driver was 100% negligent. I did not have rental car reimbursement coverage on my policy. I sent the other driver a letter asking for...

    Was injured in wreck last week, need advice

    I sent the gentleman a letter asking for approx. 2/3 of my real rental car costs, or I'd take him to court. I received a letter from his state farm agent today that says: We received the documents that you sent to our insured XXXX XXXX. Unfortunately, Michigan No-Fault Law does not support...

    No damage tap; injury claim

    "one would be pushed against the back of the seat, not forward against the seatbelt if one was tapped from the back" Am I the only person who thinks this does not make sense?

    Problems stemming from emergency surgery

    Interesting, I did not know that. She is scheduled for a couple of urology tests, including one where they said they'd put a small catheter in her and inject water, then subject her to various stresses to see how her body reacts (I don't have the names of the tests in front of me). Hopefully...

    Problems stemming from emergency surgery

    As I said in the first post, it happened July 2004. She has no bleeding disorders. Yes, they did note 2 small nodules in her lungs. They are currently monitoring it on a long-range plan with no intent to do anything unless they grow larger. As it was explained to us her extremely abundant...

    Problems stemming from emergency surgery

    With all respect, I don't quite know what you mean. Beyond the diagnosis of her cancer, the reason she required 5-6 days in ICU was because she sustained heavy blood loss in surgery (4 units blood, 2 transfusions) and had a resting heart rate of 150-170 for several days after surgery despite a...
