Yeah true. Although if the other party shows he likely will have the same result as he did with insurance.

So you'd take a case where the other driver was in a 95 beater and we're only talking about minimal damage? I deal with auto lawyers all day. I can't think of any who would take this case from the OP. There's just no money to be won.

If the damage is to her front headlight and your rear driver door than I would be far more likely to find you at fault. Simply put. Cars are more likely to make lane changes into vehicles behind them than in front of them simply because of blind spots, etc.

Also. Definitely tell them she had damage on her front end already. Make sure if they do find against you that you don't pay to get it fixed.

What other recourse would he have?

The point I was making above was assuming there would be two separate claims setup, but it does sound like after reading your earlier notes that she called this in on your insurance so there is likely only one claim open. The points of impact definitely favor her, yes. I answered the other...

Lastly, before I go to bed. If you haven't called in your statement to your company...some advice. Don't use phrases like "not sure". Don't say things like "I don't know how it happened" or "I didn't see her". Nail down a version of how the story happened in your mind and tell it. Be direct...

She called in the claim for one of two reasons. 1. She thinks you are at fault or thinks she can say you are at fault and get her vehicle fixed. 2. She has collision coverage. If she's driving a reasonable vehicle that is newer than about 8 years old in Cali I can virtually guarantee she...

Notes from someone who has worked auto claims: 1. The police weren't going to come in LA unless there were injuries. 2. Filing a police report at this point means nothing. The only thing a police report can do if he was on scene is help dissect the accident or interview witnesses who might...

I'm at a complete loss as to how someone could even be slightly offended or bothered by that request. It's not like they wrote "We're not allowing little Bobby Smith" on the invitation.

I think the #1 thing to do is not be afraid to spend money early. Everyone gets nervous about bidding a couple of bucks extra on a stud or two and bows out only to spend those couple of bucks more on someone you want way less later on. There will absolutely be several teams who have lots of...

His BaBIP last year was over .400 against lefties. If you aren't familiar with that statistic the league average is around .290, Murphy's career number is .317. Last year against lefties his was .433. In other words, he ran super super super super super good to hit the way he hit. The odds...

Murph can hit wherever he wants against righties. He should hit the bench against lefties though.

Don't worry, Jesus told her not to miss you either.

I don't really see what Bourn is going to do that a Gentry/Martin platoon won't come close to doing for like infinity less dollars.We need a RH hitting bat in the OF so Murph doesn't play everyday, and we need someone to play first base/DH. And a good defensive catcher would be nice too.
