Thread: got hit by a car, broke ankle, need some advice

so to not more anyone with a long explanation, ill make it quick, any advice would be greatly appreciated.

2 months ago, i was hit by a car when i got out of my car in a parking lot, the other car forgot to put his car in break and it rolled towards me when i got out of my car, pinned my legs, went to ER, etc. etc. ended up with a fracture in the ankle
got a lawyer and they are taking care of my case. they sent me to a podiatrists and was and still am going for treatment. My ankle is now 90% better, but lawyer is telling me/ asking me that i should go see another doctor for MRI's.
my question is, since my ankle is almost better, do i really need to go get MRI's and seek further treatment on my ankle? I know its probably because they want to collect more money from the insurance, but how does this work, if i see more doctors that the lawyer assigns , does the money that is accumulated go all towards these doctors and i see less of it myself, or is it better if i keep going and seeing doctors because we all ending up getting more? any help would be grand, thanks everyone

Its a tricky situation to call but I would consult your lawyers again and explain this situation to them to see what they say. Seeing the doctors again sounds like a good plan on paper but your right, it could end up costing you more than what your aiming to receive.

thanks for the info keep on posting

Consulting a doctor may be good, but it sound extra expenditure for you as you have recovered 90%, what doctors are saying, if they have assured you and generally after recovery x-ray is required but MRI involves lots of money and follow-ups needed. Beware, as attorney may try to pull out of your pocket.

Most probably you can take advise for your accident case from the lawyer,I hope you will get your compensation for your mishaps

thanks
