Had an accident 6 months ago and have a permanent injury, bulging disc in my lunbar. Caused me to loose my job and I won't ever be able to do any manual labor again or rock climb, hike, drive very far and things like that. Anything that involves my hips and lower back basically. Had 5k in medical bills too. What happened was this guy dropped his load on the highway in front of me and caused me to meet it head on at 55mph.
So after nearly 7 months these guys shoot me a final settlement offer of medical bills, 500 for lost wages (a joke because I made that in 3 days) and 2500 for pain and suffering.
Can someone tell me realistically what I should be seeking, I mean this is life altering in my work and personal life. The insurance company agreed and accepted all this and then threw these crap numbers at me.
