Quick details...
My 19 year old daughter and I (42 yrs old)were involved in an accident last Sept.7 . A drunk driver ran a stop sign at a high rate of speed and t- boned us.My daughter was driving. He is 100% liable.
Injuries Sustained:
Me...Multiple fractured ribs, deep contusions across lower abdomen( concave scar still present after 9 mos). Gash on front of lower leg (discoloration and a concave scar). I missed 9 wks of work as a preschool teacher.
My amounts: Medical/$5572.00....wages/$4057.46...Other: $5000.00 housekeeping/care etc.
Daughter: Entire left arm is covered with scars . At least 20+. This is no exaggeration glass still "works" its way out today.Right hand burned from air bags and scarred. Left knee aprx. 2 1/2 inch scar. Multiple contusions. She is a full time Stu.
I believe you should contact an attorney and forget negotiating with GEICO. They do not have your best interests in mind. Plus, your young daughter is still in need of medical.
Get a lawyer. ASAP.

No one can know what the record is in the case because online we cannot see your documents. You need a lawyer. Check with a lawyer in your locale to discuss more of the details.
Good luck to you.

By using or participating in this site you understand that there is no attorney client privilege between you and the attorney responding. This site should not be used as a substitute for competent legal advice from a licensed professional attorney in your state with whom you have established an attorney client relationship. The law changes frequently and varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

I am not licensed in OK, but can offer you general advice. Contact a local attorney. Ask that attorney to take a fee only on the money that they recover for you above that you have already been offered. Your claim and your daughter's claims are worth well over the policy limits. If GEICO wants to risk an excess judgment against its insured- you should have an attorney ready to try the case.
I hope your recovery goes well, and call a lawyer right away.
