I agree fraud is wrong, but I also agree that when injured you have a right for settlement.
I was nearly killed in a head-on accident. Although the courts awarded me $500,000.00 I never saw a penny of it. The drunk driver didn't have any insurance nor money and skipped out instead of coming to court.
Good luck, and I pray that you get what is right for you.

Thank you, Esther!
The insurance company is saying they do not do "open ended medical insurance". So, on that note, I'm not sure where to go from there. My neck and lower back still hurt.
Would the doctor I choose to check this out give me more direction on the way to go with a settlement, if I need one? I certainly don't want to be dishonest, but I'm listening to so many say the same you did about a neck injury. I just don't know how to handle this one.
I don't want to be left holding the bag, medically, on something like this. It wasn't my fault!
