Ambulance chasers are like cheap whores with the main difference between them being that the ####### will stop screwing you once you're dead.

i agree....robiesperre said it best after the french revolution..' kill all the lawyers..kill them tonight"

Did robiesperre speak to the idiots who come through my office door and wish to hire me to sue someone? How about 'kill all the idiots . . .kill them all tonight". Without the idiots to hire the lawyers, there is no problem.

AnyaD,

Watch out for the sudden "hurt neck" syndrome.

Remember the movie "Anger Management", where Jack Nicholson feigned a hurt neck to win the case, then after he emerged from the courthouse, he was doing "neck cracking" exercises? Amusing in the movies, not in reality. People pull this ####### everyday, in an attempt to defraud your insurance company out of $$$.

Yet another fundamental problem with our legal system and the unethical attorney willingness to exploit it.

CYA, in case of trouble.

Consult with your attorney, if you have one.

Welcome to America!!

i agree....robiesperre said it best after the french revolution..' kill all the lawyers..kill them tonight"

You got that right.. The only decent lawyers are the state / government lawyers who are actually trying to send criminals to jail..

Yeah... my Uncle is states defender counselor... and even he hates a lot of the "co-workers" in his profession.

This reminded me of a radio call in talk show I heard when the guest was a lawyer who was answering general law questions. One caller said he had slipped on the ice on his front step and wanted to know if he could sue himself so his homeowner's insurance would cover the medical bills! Honest to God - some people! (The lawyer said no).

Thanks for the heads up Unfortunately they already claim more injuries well.. It can be real ( as some one told me the injuries came like a week after the accident.. but me and Bram didnt get any) coz at the accident it was just 18 stiched at the head or somthing like that and now.. all 4 of them have several kind of injuries.. oh and at the accident we actually heard there are only 2 of them but soon after they told the insurance there was 4... may be we were mistaken at the time.. I dont know.. it was a chaos.. so they might be telling some truth.. I dont know.. i actually want to give them benefit of the doubt in case it is true though.. I feel bad and sorry for them BUT i know it's not my fault.. it really is an accident.

And Thank you all for the concern... The insurance assign us a lawyer already.. Bram is goign to talk to him ... ohh.. i have a great hubby

I remember the accident and seeing the pictures...it was raining, the roads were slick and the visibility low. I'm sorry that you've got to go through this.

I recently struck some debris on the freeway and it tore my front tire to shreds. A highway patrolmen stopped and helped me change the tire. He said he could file a report but then he'd have to cite me because he said I'm suppose to adjust me speed to allow for avoiding stricking something on the road! He was just telling me how the law looks at it, unfortunately.

umm.. that's what the insurance said.. half of our car was sitiing (not moving) in the road and others car manage to pass - and slow down to passed us...I dont know.... I just let my insurance to deal with this

my husband just called..

we got a nice visit from a sheriff to give us the law suit paper.. oh boy.. we got like 6(times 2 for the copy to me and my husband seperately) copies of them from FEDEX, Post office, phone call.... Sheriff!!! they just really want us to know eh? wondering how else they gonna send us
