Have you received compensation after having a car accident that wasnt your fault?

Question:

How much did you receive and what were your injuries and your healing time?

Answers:
well, a car slammed into me. i was at a red light. i had major whiplash, and actually the right side of my neck, shoulder and back muscles were extremely tense. so much that my head hurt, and the pain was intense in certain areas.

i am still waiting to settle, because i had to go to the chiropractor for 3 months. then i tried to exercise recently and my head started hurting Again..and my neck muscles were too tense, it hurt. so i had to keep the case open.

chiro bills were $3800. they were trying to settle for $5000. NO WAY. so i counter offered for $9k. they offered $7k...which i was going to take, until i exercised and my head hurt again. so now i am not sure what to do....

A friend of mine got 1700 quid for whiplash and a week off work.

I received £2000 for whiplash, it took about 2 years to fully recover

It took 4 whole years, but yes I eventually won my case ($28,000 for my back injury)...Just be patient and keep in mind that the whole process is VERY SLOW. Remember one thing if you ever get into any type of auto accident:

GET WITNESSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have them write down a statement of what they saw, along with their name, address, and phone number. These witness statements are SO CRITICAL in determining whether or not you are [adequately] compensated for your personal injury (especially if you have limited tort).

10,000 minor injuries to four of us mainly neck injuries seen a chiroprator for about three months.healing time about 2 months.We were hit from behind at a stopsign the guy was reading his book while driving.

had a knock for knock accident on a back road, he tried to get £20 000 out of me and a hire car, he had eye witnesses, i informed my insurance company there was non and up shot is he was arrested and is under investigation, i also heard his insurance rate is 10 times what is was before,

£3,500 after some tool reversed from his drive into my car pushing me across the road into a parked car.then he tried to say it was my fault.had whiplash which gave me a sore back and neck for almost a year ,had to wear a collar for a week .
