Expert Advice When You Need It Most

Was rear ended 11/08- their insurance still has not paid. They say to sign a release 1st and then they promise to pay. Should I?

I was rear ended back in 11/08 and was 8 months pregnant at the time. Had to go to hospital via ambulance. We are receiving medical bills still from this wreck. The other party's insurance still has not paid--they are requesting we sign a release first with a 'promise to pay' ---I am requesting your advice as to whether we should sign or not. Thank you.

It's not uncommon that there has been no payment yet and you don't want to be in a hurry if you are still getting bills. Has your doctor told you that you are over any injuries from the accident? If not, don't sign. Overall, you need an attorney to help you analyze your next step. Try the link for an attorney in your area to assist you.
