The person who hit me was not the registered owner nor the insured, is that a problem?

Not as long as he/she is driving with the owner's permission, than technically they are an insured as well.

How much should I ask for on my slip and fall personal injury case?

Answered by attorney Mark Joseph Leonardo (Unclaimed Profile)

Slip and fall cases are extremely difficult to prove and are not favored in the law. You obviously have severe injuries which is only 1/2 of the two-part equation the other half is liability. Insufficient lighting is extremely difficult to prove as the source of your fall. But to answer your questions is almost impossible with the information you provide. For any attorney to give a fair opinion the amount of your medical bills, even if paid by Medicaid, is a critical component to the valuation of your case. I think most lawyers would want to see the site where you fell and/or have photos of the scene, and definitely would want to review all of the medical bills before giving you an opinion as to case value. Your current attorney is in the best position to evaluate your case because he or she should have this information. Going to mediation is an excellent venue and opportunity to resolve your case. The mediator will assist you in exploring the pros and cons of going forward. Good luck.

Should I look for another attorney if 17 months later there's still nothing?

It's usually a bad idea to change horses at midstream? Maybe your lawyer can give you information that will help you to understand why it's taken this long to get a resolution.? Have you done all your treatments, and are you finished with them? Your lawyer has little control over what the other side does; the only "force" he has at his command is the filing of a lawsuit. Lawyers often hesitate to file suit out of impatience because it just gets you more of what made you impatient in the first place once you file suit you're in for many more months, maybe years, of waiting
