Would I have to come out of pocket if the person who hit me insurance does not pay?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kevin Marc Habberfield (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Black, Lyle & Habberfield, LLP
If you were driving a car then there should be insurance who would be the primary payer. You would only pay out of pocket if there was an excess verdict against you or a demand was made for it and you accepted it. Let the insurance company handle it, that's why you pay them. Drive carefully.

Answered by attorney Brett Edward Rosenthal (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Graves Law Offices
Tried 12 cases to verdict and have handled probably in the neighborhood of 750 cases in my 21 years as an attorney. I worked as a defense attorney for 15 years for the insurance companies and for the last 6 have worked as a plaintiff's counsel.

In California, is there a maximum amount an auto insuance company is allowed to pay out on pain and suffering?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark Richard West (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Mark West
While there is no set limit on pain and suffering damages, there could be a limit to the amount of insurance covering the individual who hit you. If you can prove the pain and suffering is worth more than the insurance limits on the person who hit you, you should make a demand for the policy limits. If the insurance company refuses to pay it, you may have a bigger claim after if you prove your case is actually worth more than the policy limits. You should seek the advice of an attorney to make sure your demand is clear. Obviously you should demand to know the limits of the insurance covering the person who hit you. The insurance company may refuse to give it to you. In that case, you can either sue (and they will have to give it to you) or there are internet services which will find insurance covering the person).
