Did your attorney give you any hope that if y'all held out longer there'd be a higher offer? There likely will, you know. They always lowball at first. Just wondering whether the atty recommended you take that and run or keep it in play a little longer. Insurance companies have very deep pockets. And frankly they can do a lot better for you two than that.
nah, that's just myc laim, she has one then i have one too.. but unfortunately... she'll never see money in hand.. even more so.. her claim isn't even going to cover her medical bills

there won't be any higher offer either... the lawyers have been holding out forever now to get more money outta the company, and they made some special demand, and the insurance people finally caved in and gave me something the lawyers feel is fair (how much is psychological damage worth anywyas? and even more so.. as i said before, they have a 20k max payout limit because of the type of insurance that bitch had... so i'm getting half of their absolute max pay out.)
