MA Auto Accident Personal Injury Claims and Settlements: Part 3 of 5
This Massachusetts PI law post is the third in a series of five addressing some of the themes to be on the lookout for when settling your car accident case or questioning whether you need a lawyer at the start of your Massachusetts personal injury case.
Wait them out – A driver injured when another car struck her from behind suffered injuries and incurred minor damages. The medical bills were just under the threshold for a claim to be pursued ($2,000 at the time). Don’t expect the insurance company to tell you about the out of pocket expenses you can be reimbursed for and make your claim actionable. In other instances, they can just wait you out and offer to make a small payment knowing you are getting collection letters and want to protect your credit. If you don't know about the tort threshold is, are close but not sure what counts, or concerned about your unpaid bills, then consult with a MA personal injury attorney.
