First and foremost, after an accident, especially a serious one, your health and safety must come first. Taking a hit to the head, broken bones, or internal bleeding you may not even be aware of can all turn into life-threatening medical disasters if you do not seek medical attention right away. The cost of medical treatment is intimidating, especially when you don't have insurance, but your life comes first. If you are in need of medical treatment, get help.
With that said, an experienced personal injury attorney may be your best resource for understanding your legal options when it comes to covering the medical bills that you may have incurred after an accident. All cases are unique, and in many situations, the at-fault party's insurance company may be responsible for covering your medical bills. You may be able to sue and take the responsible party to court for payment of your medical expenses.
Unfortunately, the bills may begin coming in before a settlement is even reached. Having a strong attorney on your side that can guide your legal strategy and negotiate aggressively on your behalf could be your best option for recovering the money you need to pay for your medical treatment. Before you begin trying to pay out of pocket, contact a skilled attorney with DeMayo Law Offices to review your options.
