I was told the pplicy holder wasnt in the state and he didnt own that slecific vehicle, also that i filed the wrong vehicle in the claim. I have a licture of the insurance card and he was already proved at fault through my insurance

There is no proof until trial. And you may have to go through one. Hire an attorney to represent you for any personal injuries or property damage. It appears the insurance company is denying liability and refuses to pay, so an action must be filed.
The lein holder is trying to not honor that amount. Is that legal

A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for four weeks. One would need to see the lien agreement to understand more about the lienholder's reluctance to carrying out its terms. But lien agreements are usually binding. If you have an attorney representing you, it... Read more »
the contract is null/void because my insurance is paying it out. Is that legal if my settlement amount is less? Can the lien holder disregard that contract
answered on Sep 23, 2022
A Tennessee attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. This requires closer examination than is possible in the limited scope here. It could depend on the type of lien and other possible factors. There are certain liens, such as public health liens, that are subject... Read more »
Police report was not made as the girl says the much older other driver basically talked them out of calling. My car is messed up and the drivers dad says she’s not responsible. Am I out of luck?
answered on Sep 9, 2022
Sure. You could sue her for the property damage. Winning and collecting may be another issue. A lot more facts would be needed to assess your case. Consult a local attorney to determine your options.

Not sure of your question. But usually you will want to sue the other driver and/or owner for Negligence as a Property Tort. Hopefully you have service information, and maybe he has insurance. File suit in General Sessions.

Not sure of your question, but you have stated alot of facts on a public forum. If charged with DUI, that is your main concern. Hire a competent attorney to prepare for a Preliminary Hearing. Apparently your actions or statements caused the LEO's to think you had the capability of... Read more »

Yes, it could potentially still be your fault because you are required when operating a motor vehicle to maintain control of your vehicle. In the situation you described you should have left enough room in between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you to allow yourself ample time to stop.... Read more »

You should probably call a lawyer specializing in car injuries. Ask your friends for a referral. I am sure at least some of them have been in car accidents and can recommend a good lawyer or two. Many injury lawyers will be happy to discuss your options and will give you an initial consultation for... Read more »

What is your question? Apparently you do not have an attorney representing you, which will be the first step in most situations.
Hi, I am aware that some insurance companies calculate pain and suffering for auto accident/personal injury cases using a "multiplier" between 1 and 5 depending on the severity of the injury. In preparation for considering an upcoming offer from my P&C carrier for a claim under my... Read more »

I don't know that there really is a multiplier- and a multiplier range of between 1-5 is pretty broad. Damages should be unique to your case- and how your ankle injury impacts you.

Not sure of your question. If there is an outstanding Arrest Warrant then LEOs execute the Warrant in almost any manner they can. Obviously the Warrant had nothing to do with his driving your car.
That situation

Not sure of your question, but it is possible drug tests of both the driver and the deceased will be performed. THP has authority here. Driver should hire an attorney now to prepare him for the investigation and possible prosecution, as well as insurance claims.

Contact your insurance company. If you have auto coverage, you likely have uninsured motorist coverage.

Aggravated Assault, a Class C Felony, for starters. There are possibly other crimes to charge her with.

There's a chance you could get stopped for unauthorized use of lights, especially blinking blue and red.
I finally got ahold of someone from the insurance company after almost 3 weeks and they told me I was at fault just because I hit the other person first. The other person involved ran a stop sign and I was not able to stop in time. I was wondering if I have a case?
answered on Nov 1, 2021
Call a competent attorney in your area today. There are many pertinent facts needed, and you do not understand what is going on. Even if a property damage tort only in your case, you can mess it up quickly. Citations in Court can destroy you also. Comparative Negligence may apply.

Yes.. The collection agent can write the Department of Safety about your default. That will revoke your Conditional Release and Suspend your TN DL.
