My question involves an injury that occurred in the state of: MS.
A friend of mine was driving home and a tree fell on her car. She lost her leg, her nose and hand also was broken. Her car was totaled also.
My question is who is responsible for her medical bills? She has car insurance (only had car for 2 months). She was told that it would be hard to prove that the home owner knew their tree was rotten so she is just out of luck.
I have no knowledge of the law, but it would seem that the people that owned the tree, home owners insurance should pay for her medical bills. I'm pretty sure her car insurance will take care of her car. What about the loss of her leg, will she receive any compensation for that and if so by who?
