What do do when a car not driven by its insured owner hits a pedestrian in a cross-walk?

There are a number of potential options for your brother to pursue. A lot of options depend on the specific circumstances and types of insurance coverage(s) available. The easiest avenue may be to have a free consultation with an attorney to really go over all of the details. For the most comprehensive review, an attorney will request a copy of the police report along with any insurance related documents - for both the at fault driver and any cars owned by your brother or garaged at his...

. Assume Jill was injured in an automobile accident while vacationing in California. Sam was driving the car that hit her. Jill

Likely, Jill will have to bring the claim/suit in California because that is where the accident occurred. This depends upon California law. In the alternative, Jill may be able to bring the claim/suit in Michigan because that is where Sam resides. If this same scenario took place in Georgia instead of California, Jill should bring the claim/suit in Georgia instead of Michigan. Georgia law allows the injured party (Jill) to bring the claim/suit in the jurisdiction in which she was injured -...

A non-insured worker fell from a ladder at my FL prop & sustained multiple bone fractures. What is my liability?

Your liability is probably limited based upon the facts that you presented. Do you maintain insurance coverage for these types of ocurrences? If so, that insurance company should provide you with a defense at no additional cost. The key for you is to place the insurance company on notice as quickly as possible once you receive notice of the injured person making a claim or pursuing you. If you have workers comp insurance, the same likely applies.

I was rear ended in a car accident and have neck,shoulder and back pain. What should I do?

The most important concern is your health - seek immediate medical attention for your injuries. When you first see a doctor, be sure to explain that you were injured in an auto accident. If you do not have health insurance, some doctors are willing to treat you regardless because your injuries are from a motor vehicle accident. The next step would be to contact an experience personal injury attorney. It is not advisable for you to speak with the other driver's insurance company without...

Will my auto insurance rates go up after my Florida car accident?

It might. The things to consider are whether the accident was your fault and/or you make a claim with your own insurance company for anything other than Medical Payment benefits (Med Pay). If the accident was not your fault, you should have nothing to worry about. Good luck and let me know if I may be of any further service. -Evan Kaine
