How do I evaluate my settlement claim for an auto accident in which I suffered permanent personal injury?

In: Value auto insurance claims

12 Feb 2010



An uninsured, unlicensed driver rear-ended me on the freeway. I had under-insured and uninsured coverage. I broke my little finger and injured the adjacent ring finger on my left hand. These two fingers had previously had surgery to release from a contracture. The accident destroyed the surgical results and my two fingers are now collapsed into my palm giving me
a three finger grip. The hand can never be repaired since the
previous two surgeries resulted in enough vascular compromise that any more surgery would have a 20% chance of amputation. I was put into a cast. There was intense swelling and pain immediately. The swelling eventualy went down after 10 weeks. I was in a cast for six weeks. I did not lose work days. My car was totalled causing me to have to spend 26,000 for a replacement. The insurance company would like to settle — my old car was settled for 3,500; my hosp. bills totalled 5,000. My hand is permanently damaged. I am over 60 years of age.
