Best information and tips about injury claim car accident, automobile accident lawyers and personal injuries claim
I was in a car accident on Sept 2007 and I was injured very badly. (A large delivery truck ran a red light and t-boned me) With the economy so bad, I lost my job and can afford to make payments on hospital bills. The collection office says they want money right away. My settlement from my accident will be revealed at the end of January. My question is when the lawyers take there % out of my check, the rest of the money will go to me and I will take care of the hospital bills myself right?

You will need to read the terms of the settlement to find out.

Yes, that’s normal, however, the insurer may pay the hospital and send any balance to you.

Normally Yes you will get the check for your medical bills but not always. In the end we are always responsible for our own medical bills. Have you called the hospital to inform them of your pending settlement ? You should, because they may hold off on the collection if you simply communicate with them

no i think the layer gets a third and the hospital bills should be paid by the delivery co and then you should get your money ask the lawyer who pays the medical they should go after the driver .
