Hi all,
Spouse, 2.5 year old son and I were in a rear end collision back in October. We were stopped at a red light and rear ended by another driver. We have had our Nissan Leaf repaired to the tune of $1,400. We took our kid for a check up at his pediatrician after I was diagnosed with a concussion and whiplash, and spouse was diagnosed with whiplash.
2 months later, here's our situation:
3 days off work for me. I would have taken more but I am a teacher and making sub plans was far harder with my concussion than just suffering through the nausea and blurred vision at work. I also went to 3x weekly chiropractic treatment for Oct 4-Dec 13.
Spouse had a total of 8 hours off work. He had 3x weekly chiropractic treatment for Oct 4-Dec 13.
Kid had 1 check up with doctor. He seems to have no lasting effects.
Spouse and I have been cleared by chiropractor. My concussion seems to have passed after a month of weird symptoms.
Medical bills thus far: $3725 for spouse + $4500 for me + $120 for kid. Time off work = $1,100 for spouse and me.
What's a reasonable and fair ask when we settle with other driver's insurance?
Thanks for advice.
