I was on a city bus and another city bus from the same company hit the back of the bus I was on. I was sitting in the back of the bus so I took a direct hit to the lower back. The windshield was blown out of the bus that hit us and anti-freeze was coming from the bus. I was jerked forward on the bus and had to go to a chiro with lower back injuries for 6 weeks. My lawyer (who I suspect is working for the insurance company) is settling for 2x medical bills, is this a low amount from the magnitude of the hit?
My lawyer was always telling me that a jury wouldn't find my case valid and I might leave with nothing, that the insurance adjuster is a tough guy, that it will cost me a lot of money to take it to court, etc. I feel like he is trying to intimidate me, but am I paranoid or is there something more to this? If you were injured, would this sound like a good deal to you after getting hurt by the bus company?
