i was delivering a pizza and there was a man-hole sticking 7-inches out of ground inside of a pothole filled with water deaming it invisible in the pouring down rain. the impact to the manhole ripped off my oil pan causing 600 dollars in damage. should i get a lawyer or try to handle it myself.. i dont have money for a lawyer after all the cash i had to fork up to fix my can and the three days of work i had to miss. what should i do?
