Q: I was hit in a car accident March 1st 2019 I had liability on my automobile the other driver was at fault do I have case
audio footage of the accident I had liability I'm looking to sue for the loss of my car my loss of wages pain and suffering
A: Yes, you would have a claim for the property loss, medical bills, pain, and suffering. You could also recover your lost wages if you have proof that you missed work as a result of the injuries suffered in the accident. The property claim is separate from your bodily injury claim. Thus, you can settle your property claim before you settle the injury claim. However, I would advise you to speak with an attorney before you speak to the insurance company.
Tim Akpinar agrees with this answer
A: Not sure why you're asking but yes, if video footage especially. Contact a member of the Ala Trial Lawyers Assn--they give free consults. All the best in your quest for justice.

A:
From your description of liability, it sounds like you can sue if you were injured. The element of lost wages is normally treated in consideration of any payments that an employer would continue to make.
