Insurance companies take unreasonable positions every day. If you are not happy with the offer and position taken, you have the option of filing a lawsuit against the at-fault driver.

The medical bills they have been and may be liable for. Depending on the circumstances they may have other claims depending on the case, if they were present, seriousness etc. They should speak to the member of the AzTrial Lawyers Assn who is representing their child.
Here is the situation. Went to the bar one night. Saw a friend there and they called me over. Start having regular bar talk. The conversation came to how to best remove ear wax. The friend that called me over started waving their hands around in a non violent manner. Well the friend they were with... View More

you have a case for assault & battery. Hopefully you will be well. Unless the alleged friend has money I don't see any insurance coverage that would make it worth anyone's time to sue him--all they'd get would be a piece of paper they'd be unlikely to collect on.
Case has actual injuries,civil rights violations,product liability. I really need help

No case against a manufacturer is easy. For starters contact a member of AzTrial Lawyers Assn who handles product liability--they give free consults.
Was told they won't pay, because there was no fault of the policy holder. What can be done about this

In most cases involving injury at a personal home, the homeowner's insurance carrier will not pay out funds unless there is some fault on the part of the homeowner. Some policies have Medical Payment coverage which does pay for medical bills even without the showing of fault. Contact a local... View More

You can ask for restitution during the criminal proceedings. You can sue the neighbor in civil court. Insurance usually doesn't apply in cases like this but more info is needed to determine.

If possible, plaintiff's personal injury lawyers will typically file in State court rather than Federal court. I recommend you talk to an injury lawyer ASAP. The consultation is free.

An ex-girlfriend had a lawyer send a Cease and Desist letter to me so that I would stop contacting her. She had never directly told me to stop contacting her before this so I would on occasion send her an email expressing my feelings towards her which would always result in no response. Since while...

If this is important enough to you, you will go and have a full discussion with a local attorney. The comments you get on a site like this just are not like having a full discussion with a private attorney.

What with a court? With an insurance company? Best to talk to an Arizona injury lawyer. Most of us, including me, offer free consultations. I'd be happy to answer additional questions.

The entire agreement should be reviewed rather than trying to interpret six words out of context.
I understand if I was riding a bike it would be a Pik so I would get compensated for injuries and bike but since I wasn't riding the bike how do I get compensated for my bike

You can make a claim against the person(s) who were responsible for the accident and/or make a claim on your own insurance policy (if you have that type of coverage). Be well.
My dog and I were walking through my complex and were attacked by three cats. It was very vicious and the cats would not back down. I had to see my doctor and received 2 shots as well as being on antibiotics. I'm very uncomfortable walking my dog now and am on high alert when outdoors now

I do not see how the HOA would be liable for the actions of stray cats on the property. You, of course, can contact a personal injury lawyer in your area for a free consultation.

I don't understand your question. If you were assaulted, make a police report. You may also want to consult with a personal injury lawyer. Be well.

You'd have to show they were negligent. If you have insurance, it may be easiest to let them handle it.
I am fostering for a rescue a pit mix who has broken leg. It was set by their vet with pins and screws. The vet carelessly did not rewrap well and a screw got caught in his crate. While trying to free him I was bit several times and was in hospital for 5 days and had hand surgery. Both vet and... View More

You may want to contact a personal injury lawyer in your area for a free consultation. Yours sounds like a difficult case of negligence against the vet. But get that free consultation.
He was transported to hospital.police reports taken needs help with this whole process where and what should he do?

You need to contact a persona injury lawyer in your area for a free consultation. If the insurance company contacts you, do not speak with them until you have first spoken to a lawyer. You can look for lawyers in your area on this site.

The worst case scenario for you is that you fire the present lawyer who then puts a lien on the file and you have trouble getting a new lawyer because of the first lawyer's lien. Your best bet is to consult another Arizona personal injury lawyer and see if you can line up a different Arizona... View More
