What damages am I entitled to recover for as a result of my accident?
Medical bills, loss of wages, transportation costs to and from doctor's appointments, and sometimes loss of earning power, are just a few of the damages you may make claim for as a result of the injuries due to your accident.

To whom do I submit my medical bills to for payment?
You should initially submit your medical bills to the property owner's liability carrier. Should they deny them, then you should submit your medical bills to your private health insurance carrier so that your bills are taken care of in a timely manner.

What if I receive an offer to settle my claim?
Any settlement offer should be carefully considered. You must assess the extent of your injuries, the potential for future medical expenses, and the possibility that your injuries may have a substantial impact on the way you live the rest of your life. Your medical providers are the best individuals to advise you of the seriousness and permanency of your injuries. Should you have any questions as to any settlement offer you receive, an attorney should be consulted.

If I do accept the offer and sign a Final Release, am I entitled to future claims for injuries that are a result of my accident but which I was not aware of when I signed the Release?
No. Once you have signed the Final Release from the property owner's insurance carrier, you are forever barred from making future claims against the owner, carrier, and their heirs and assigns, even though the damages are related to your accident.
