Q: The accident happened in California is April of last year I received a Settlement in March out of that I had to pay back
The accident happened in California is April of last year I received a Settlement in March out of that I had to pay back all the people with the bills but my biggest question is Progessive wants me to pay back what they paid to the doctors. So I wanted to know if I had to pay that back is the settlement was from State Farm the guy that hit me is insurance company.
In one of there letters it’s states that I may have to pay back or not?
Thanks
A: Normally, an auto insurance company won't make a demand that has no legal basis, but what you're saying makes no sense if you were not the at-fault party and Progressive is your own insurance company. You should make an appointment with an attorney in your area to show the written demand, your insurance policy, the settlement documents, etc., so that you can obtain a reliable opinion.
