How do I get an attorney to actually DO something to help me after my car accident?
mysticalfishseeksromeo asked:
Since my accident in 2006 I have had more than one lawyer. I have been lied to, ignored, yelled at, you name it! Please, someone tell me what to do! I have been left with little or no respect for the legal profession. I am actually thinking of representing myself! This is ridiculous!

If you had to get a lawyer in NC and CA could they divide the contingency fee?
AMY W asked:
I got into a car accident in CA and was living in CA at the time. About 6 months later I had to move back to NC. I still live in NC. Before I got into the accident I had broken my spine. THe day I got into the accident was about 7 months into healing of my spine. I am still going through therapy and seeing the dr. I didn’t have apid like I did before the fusion (after the accident if got worse) My question is, I have been told that I have to get a lawyer from NC and CA to file suit against the insurance company. I have medical damages from that accident. I will eventually have to have another fusion of my spine done as well because of that accident. But, if I get both lawyers that will kill any amount of money I get from the insurance. WIth some fees as small as 25% I had heard and some more plus fees. It will leave me with nothing. Well something but nothing comparibly to what the lawyers get. I have heard that some lawyers will pay out of their fee if another lawyer is needed. HELP

I was in a car accident, is there any way I can be at fault?
toggisarang asked:
Few days ago, I was on my way to school. I was waiting for green light and all of a sudden this car hits me from behind. She called the police and they came but they didn’t take a report, instead they wrote a paper called Accident Information Exchange.
I’ve already contacted my insurance agent, and a lawyer, but someone told me that because I don’t have a police report, the other driver could lie about what happened.
Is it possible??
when it happened I was completely stopped. the other driver rear ended me like 20 secs after I’ve been waiting for the green light.
I live in so cali by the way, if it makes any difference.

What can happen to me if the insurance company denied coverage for the car I was operating and a accident occu
dr2gether asked:
In June 4 2004 I was involved in a car accident. No summonses were given to any of the parties involved. I was driving my sister’s car, which at one point was living at the same residence as I reside in but moved out by January 2002. She open her policy sometime in 2001 and may have forgotten to declared me as a licensed driver living in thehousehold(not sure what was omitted). In 2006 I was served with a civil lawsuit. I turned the lawsuit papers over to her insurance company, by this time she had a different insurance company. They assigned a lawyer to be my defense counsel and deal with the suit. Sometime in July 2007, my sister insurance notified me that they were not going to be responsible for any liability cost or any future legal cost. The letter stated that they were now in 2007 voiding my sister policy dating back to February 2002 and gave no explanation as to why. It said I could appeal but the appeal’s process is ridiculous because is conducted by someone that works for
them actually by the same person who denied coverage the first time. Now I have to get a lawyer to defend me and try to get the insurance company to act responsibly as well as a lawyer so that they stop giving my sister the run around by not providing her a copy of her policy to see what section allows them to void the policy. By the way my sister had other claims that they answer for and they also collected almost 4 years of premiums. Are they allowed to do this and what can happen to me if I was unable to afford legal representation?

If there is an auto accident and both drivers are insured, do lawyers get involved in the process or not?
The Christopher asked:
If there is a two car accident and both accidents are insured by two different insurance companies, do the insurance companies solve the damages without a lawyer, or is a lawyer involved?

Do I have to honor a judicial subpoena that was mailed to me?
I M asked:
A lawyer contacted me about a car accident that I witnessed over 5 years ago and after his repeated attempts to get me to come in and testify on it(which btw I have no recollection of it at all), he exclaimed to me that he will subpoena me to come in and actually sent someone to my apt. twice with a subpoena, but I was not home…..I received a photocopy of the subpoena…….do I have to appear to a photocopied/mailed-to-me subpoena(state of NY)?……..tia!
Now that I look at the “judicial subpoena” papers more closely, it was signed by the attorney for the defendant and NOT a judge…..what the f…..!!?!? does that make any sense?…I thought a judge is supposed to sign it……

I am looking for a laywer with a kind heart?
Lost Heaven asked:
I was recently in a car accident that left me with a herniated disk as well as a huge financial burden.
I was recently in a car accident that left me with a herniated disk as well as a huge financial burden.
I noticed something about my previous workplace that I want somebody with legal experience to take a look at, and to listen to my story.
If there are any lawyers out there who can help me pro bono, or at least somewhat reasonably priced, it would be a great help, as I cannot afford a then alive Johnny Cochrane.
If its any help, I’m currently located in Virginia, although my accident occured on Long Island.

I’ll tell my lawyer that and they possibly will go to court. What do you think will happen? Will they have to pay me for some time? I had 2 jobs

How should I go about making this a law?
realcutie asked:
Something really tragic happened to me about 5 years ago, and now I suffer from PTSD. All I am saying about is this tragedy is that it was a car accident, which resulted in ruining my life. How would I go about making a law in my name to hopefully get some money so I can turn my life around. If you are wondering, this car accident was not my fault! Would I need to get a lawyer? I want to make this law national too. So what would I need to do?
