There is no way to recommend an amount to ask without getting more information about the nature of your injuries, your medical expenses, and how the injuries have affected your job and your life. You should not settle with the insurance company until you have a good understanding of whether the injuries will affect you and your child in the future. I recommend that you hire an Asheville lawyer whom you respect and trust to help you evaluate your case and look out for your best interests. Ed Bleynat and Joe Ferikes are lawyers with the Ferikes & Bleynat firm in Asheville. Their number is 828-251-1588. I have been in cases with both of them and they are both very capable lawyers. Good luck.
