Without many facts—that is a very typical breakdown of a settlement disbursement in Florida for a car wreck case.

I think you're asking if the disbursement amounts are normal, rather than asking if the gross settlement amount of $25K is normal. Either way, a lawyer would have to review the matter to tell you if the dollar amounts are as they should be. Regarding disbursements, GENERALLY: (A) the... Read more »

a. You should ask the local police if they can and will prosecute the cyclist.

b. The resident driver's liability insurance company might be able to sue the HOA and the security company if the carrier is obligated to pay damages to the cyclist.

c. The cyclist is probably... Read more »

If you have auto insurance that includes bodily liability coverage, you have the option of giving the letter to your insurance company, and they must handle the matter for you, including providing legal representation free of charge to you. If you don't have that coverage, a good option would... Read more »

If the driver was not injured, what does the driver need help with? I suggest you submit a new post to clarify that.

Yes, workers comp is for on-the-job injuries. You were driving as part of your paid duties, so you were on the job. But if the accident was the other driver's fault, you can also set up a claim with that driver's insurance and, if necessary, sue the driver (and owner, if different from... Read more »

Fighting what? You indicate that there was no damage. If they do contact you claiming damage, you can get the driver's information at that time. Tell your insurance company that the driver failed to give you his information.

A Florida attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to consult with a local attorney on state-specific insurance law, the general practice nationwide is that carriers are permitted to conduct EUOs, or Examinations Under Oath, as part of their...

Your husband can pursue a case against the driver and the car owner under the Dangerous instrumentality doctrine. Retain counsel here in Florida on contingency fee, which means your husband doesn’t pay anything unless he wins the case.

Turn the matter over to your insurance company.

I assume you were sued in Tenn. If you had insurance to cover your liability, the insurance company must provide you with an attorney free of charge. If you did not have coverage, you need an attorney who is licensed in Tenn. You can try the Justia Find a Lawyer tab or contact the Tenn. Bar... Read more »

Your inquiry is vague regarding "Allstate's client" being responsible to pay. I assume you mean Allstate's insured (the at-fault driver), but he/she would not be personally responsible to pay unless his/her policy limits are reached. Allstate itself is responsible to pay up to... Read more »

The issue is negligence - who drove their vehicle in a negligent (careless) manner by not properly looking out for oncoming vehicles? That could have been one of you or both, but if the officer blamed you, in documentation, for improper backing (even though he/she didn't issue a ticket) and... Read more »

Your question is vague as to the timing of the events, as well as the specific danger posed by the rock-thrower. You may "stand your ground" with reasonable force that is necessary for self-defense - that is, to stop an ongoing attack that may cause death or great bodily injury to you.... Read more »

You are being sued for the accident, I assume. if you had insurance, contact your insurance company; they will defend you. But no, you don't have to have an attorney, although it would be a very good idea to get one.

Since it your seems to have been the one to have caused the accident (unless there was something that the semi-truck did wrong), I don't think your son would have a successful personal injury case verses the semi-truck. Hopefully, your son has bodily injury (BI) protection, which is what the... Read more »

It sounds like you have two types of cases here: 1) work comp as you were injured while performing your normal job duties, and 2) personal injury verses the driver of the vehicle that caused your accident. I'm not quite sure why you're not getting work comp benefits, but there's not... Read more »

It seems that you are being sued by the other person involved in the auto accident. In that case, your car insurance will represent you by hiring an attorney, if they haven't done so already. The attorney should reach out to you to discuss the accident, so they know how to answer the complaint... Read more »

You can often treat with providers on "letters of protection" and not pay up front, but out of the proceeds of a case. Generally, medical providers offer this if you have an attorney pursuing an injury case. You should consult with an experienced injury attorney as soon as possible.

Generally speaking, the car accident will be filed where the accident occurred. However, your state's law would usually control assets located within that state.
