Do I have a good case and if I do, how much should my lawyer demand from the insurance company?

J. Michael End
Answered by attorney J. Michael End
Personal Injury lawyer at End, Hierseman & Crain LLC
The facts will determine whether your case is a good one or not. You will be forced to prove that your injuries were caused by a defect in the property and that the landlord's negligence was more a cause of your injury than your own negligence. After all, you had lived there for two years at the time of the accident. If there are some good facts that would help your case, you might be able to win it. If not, it might be tough. Your injuries and resulting damages are serious, so if you can win the case, you should recover pretty good compensation. Remember, though, that the damages determined by a jury would be reduced by your percentage of negligence, assuming the landlord is found to have been at least 50% at fault. Thus, if the jury determines you were 55% at fault and the landlord 45% at fault, you lose the case. If the jury determines you were 45% at fault and the landlord 55%, you would then receive 55% of the damages determined by the jury, since the damages would be reduced by your 45% of the causal negligence.

Can my previous insurance sue me for personal injury when someone else was driving?

Answered by attorney Mark Richard West (Unclaimed Profile)
Personal Injury lawyer at Mark West
If the car was insured and the amount paid by your insurance was within the policy limits, the insurance company is not entitled to get that money back from you. That is what insurance is for. Unless the person who was driving was a specifically excluded driver whom you allowed to drive the vehicle, then you might be on the hook. Are you sure it is the insurance company who is suing you? Or is the insurance company asking you to appear as a witness because the person who was injured is suing.

Can I file the wrongful death suit for being killed by a legally intoxicated driver?

Yes. As his parent, you would be the person entitled to file the suit. There are often short time limits in which to do so, so you should consult with a qualified injury attorney right away. I am sorry for your loss.
