Q: Failure to yield supposed to be dismissed but other car damages are in review so do i go to court or wait or ??
Have paper stating other persons damages are in review so do I g I cwith no lawyer and gat points or do I get a lawyer
A:
A North Carolina attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. You ask if you should go to court. That's up to you. But if the matter hinges on awaiting the carrier's review of damages, going to court might not necessarily speed anything up.
You ask if you should get a lawyer. Like your first question, that's also up to you. Your matter does not appear to involve bodily injury. I hope that's the case. Many people resolve straightforward property damages claims without attorneys, sometimes through small claims court. If you have the confidence to handle the matter on your own, you'll save money. If the matter is more complex and you feel more comfortable having someone else dealing with it, you could reach out to attorneys to discuss their terms for handling things. That would fall outside this Q & A forum - arrangements would be between you and the attorneys you reached out to. Good luck
A: Addendum - I'm sorry, a minute ago I responded to your question solely in terms of how to deal with a PROPERTY DAMAGE claim, as this was posted under "Car Accidents." After you mentioned in your first sentence that you were awaiting the property damages assessment, I just noticed in rereading your post that you also mentioned "points." I apologize - I should have caught that in my first read. If POINTS are involved, that indicates a possible TRAFFIC VIOLATION. If that's the case, then you could consider reaching out to traffic ticket defense attorneys and discussing your situation meaningfully and in detail with them. They could advise you about their analysis of the situation and their fees for representing you. Good luck
