I was in a minor accident this spring, got hit from behind while stopped at a red right. No doubt as to who was at fault on it. I couldn't avoid it, as I had someone in front of me. I was trapped.
The damage to my pickup was $600 for a new rear bumper assembly, which has already been paid for by the other insurance company. My medical bills are $1,500, which was all Chiropractic care.
After the accident, I was off of work for a day and a half, and then I worked two days from home. For follow up care, I saw the Chiropractor 22 times in total... so I lost the equivalent of 3 more days of work with that.
I was in a fairly bad accident in 2009, where I was hit from behind as well. Of course, they're going to use that against me in this settlement.
I need to settle with the other insurance company. Their adjuster wants me to make the first demand for pain and suffering, so we can settle this out.
Where does one even start, in putting a dollar amount on this?
