The Mad Chatters thread Part 3

[paigevz]

good thinking.

even if the lady at fault only has the state minimum she may have other assets that could/would come into play. If she crossed the center line like you said she is at fault (and I know what I am talking about) and she needs to make everything right. Only an attorney (not an insurance company - hers or your mom's) can find this out for you (via the cival justice system).

I hope this helps and I pray for a speedy recovery for your son and mom.

Thank you, you don't think I should call mom's insurance first? Some of the other posters on the thread do................

I called mom and told her to stop talking to that guy. She said she already gave a statement, I asked if she was on her pain meds at the time, she was.............

My sis in law has been talking to a lawyer for them. He wants the facts of the case to see if he can "do any good". He will take a third of what they win if he takes the case (and if they win, I guess). Is that usual?

The insurance (other lady's) did send us a letter with a number and name asking us to call.............do I need to call at all? It won't negate their responsibility if I don't call, will it?

And is there a time limit on all this? The wreck was a month ago.........how quickly do we need to move?

Goodnight Denise........sorry I'm preoccupied with this insurance thing tonight........I shouldn't answer the phone when I'm DISing!

Paige, sometimes it can take up to a year or more for all the bills to come in and this guy is looking to get this off his desk. He knows the longer it stays there, the more money it will cost his firm. But that is not your mom's or your family's problem. That problem belongs to the woman who hit them. She pays for insurance just for this, to cover her in the event of an accident, and it is his job to make sure that they don't ever have to pay too much money. But you may need more than the minimum amount that they are offering. There is no time frame as long as the treatment is ongoing for the initial injuries.

You have time. I think you have a year (but not sure) to file any type of action.

1/3 is the going rate.

I would still talk to your mom's insurance company and would call the other insurance company to see what they want but do not tell them anything - just see what they want/offering.

Well, I don't know. The last time I was there was 11 years ago, I was there for my honeymoon, and we stayed off site. So we didn't do much eating on site.

I love the turkey legs there, but that is not really a full meal.

The Starlight cafe is pretty good - lots of choices if I remember correctly.

When we go in December, we are celebrating Taylor's 10th birthday, its on Dec. 4th. So she picked the Perfectly Princess Tea Party, then Chef Mickeys for Dinner. But we didn't want to leave Emily out so, on the 7th she will get to have a mock birthday. We are having breakfast at CRT then dinner at 1900 PF, then onto MVMCP. We have friends from church who coincidently going to be there at the same time, even at the WL with us. We haven't planned to do anything together but we are going to meet up at MVMCP. The kids have all planned to go to the story reading in the PJs together every night. These kids have all grown up together, Taylor and their son Mark used to tell everyone that they were going to get married one day. And it is so strange that we are winding up there together, about 4 years ago, we joked about going together, but both of our DH's don't like vacationing with other families, they always feel tied down. And now here we are going at the same time and neither one of us knew that we planned it at the same time. It was meant for us to go together.

That's the Disney magic, Mary.

I like Pecos Bill's in MK, but I'm a sucker for a cheeseburger. I liked to get fries from the McDonald's cart across the way, but I heard they nixed their agreement? So will the fries be gone?

I'm a sucker for a cheeseburger too. I like them when they are so juicy that they are dripping all the way down to your elbows. YUM!!!

They were there last month when I was there.

Good Night Cy

[paigevz]

Well, Mary, guess I'll go too. I'm gettin' tired and still have to do laundry, pack and pay bills before I leave tomorrow, and dh wants to do garage sales, so I'll have to get up early..............

Ok Paige, I took a 5 minute power nap after I ate dinner tonight and now I am wide awake, but I did take a cold pill so I am hoping it will kick in soon. I feel yucky from this cold, it is in the top of my chest now. Hopefully it will not turn into bronchitis. I don't have time for that. I have 4 preplanned jobs next week and they are with some of my regular teachers who always ask for me. I don't like to let them down, I can always count on them to call me.

 

[mom2taylorandemily]

Well, see ya Paige, have a good visit with your parents. I hope you are able to get some stuff solved. Be careful and check in if you can. Have a safe trip, I'll check in to see if you are around.

 

[paigevz]

My cold is gone................here's hoping yours is gone soon..........

I never remember people's names well, and forget to call good subs........if they leave me their name and number I put it in my desk drawer, but the year just started and most of those aren't on the list anymore.............
