Suing Over Minor Injuries
You are to be commended CM1978! Many people today get lawyers & try to make $$ from exaggerated injuries. Some even wanting to sue above & beyond 100k policy limit that someone is insured up to. Many times I see that they discover a little defect they hadn't had before & expect the party at fault to pay over that 100k- even though they have medical insurance to get the surgery. Those are the ones who "hurt" others personally bc of their greed & dishonesty. And make all of our insurance premiums go up.
And they don't want to work for their "riches" either. The love of $ IS the root of all evil.
Here you even have a DUI & you are generous enough not to ruin the poor idiot who owns the vehicle's life. I think the public cares that the drunk driver is off the road & deals with her DUI charges. That's a must.
You didn't say exactly what injuries you incurred (as some minor injuries do not come with much of a price tag anyway) But if you feel secure about payment & satisfied on what their insurance will compensate you with & for-
then - you are no fool - & you are a good person. And you'll probably be compensated sooner than if you got a lawyer. Get well soon!
