from what i know. . you should get what your medical bills are + what your car is worth unless you have some disability. emotional distress is no longer a way for you to get that extra 6k you want. sorry but its reality. im no lawyer though so don't take my word for it

Do the paperwork and come here, that is awesome, but don't sneak in.
Anyway, I hope you are ok, and that everything gets taken care of.
Before I say any of this let it me known that i hate raging liberals and i am republican however before you blindly state opinion as fact i'd like to put in my two cents.

Cali's debt is much much more to do with illegals. Has to do with the over infestation of public programs that politicians use to get themselves into the seat. There are way too many programs to help out the general public with things they should be getting on thier own and people abusing the system. This is for much for than "illegals" getting money from the system. It's just lazy american-born citizens. Illegals take less from the system in help. What they do tend to abuse is our educational/medical system. However these aren't the things are have us hugely in debt. Should they be removed? Hell yes, but it'll never happen because we live in california where we are all subject to the crap liberals give us about being humaine. Liberals have more to do with our shitty economic state than just illegal immigrants. If you REALLY want to look at it, it's the liberals fault for giving them so much lee-way all this time.

Liberals should all be burned

I agree with you for the most part. There was a study done by some university that showed that if California stopped paying into illeagals benefits, that the state of Cali would be out of debt in something like 6 months... when you think of the staggering debt that Cali has, that is amazing. Yes, the majority of the problems are caused by the liberals, but this is one of thier pet projects. Even if they would stop paying 50% of the benefits, they would probably be out of debt in a year or two. That tells me that Cali pays a lot of taxes just to support ILLEAGALS. I have no problems immigrants, that is the great american dream, come here and end up in a better place then the country you left. Just do it right. Instead of us paying them all this money in benefits to people who don't pay taxes anyway, I would rather see the focus put on the fact that people who do it right coming from Mexico have to wait as long as 20 years or more to get here. The vast majority of that wait comes from the Mexican government. That is sad, and just tells me that they want to keep thier law abidding and see thier less law abiding come over here. If there was less tolerance of it, WE would end up fronting less of the burden. By burden I mean money to jail, money for medical, money for primary and secondary schools (not sure if the secondary school thing passed, but I know they were trying some months ago to give illegals in state tution), and numerous other things. There is a big problem with lazy Americans as well. But I challenge anyone who says that things that rely heavily on manual labor (like farming) would shut down if it were for the illegals. I bet if the US said that we would stop paying ALL aide to Mexico unless they cut down the wait time for visas to something like 3 years, that there would be no difference, and we could screen people better before they come over. You have to understand that there is a real security risk to it as well. Hugo Chavez is paying people to come over our boarders ARMED. That is real, and I think we are relativly lucky that no one has come over the boarder shooting.

Agreed, but on the flip side of things... there is a risk on those low paying jobs. Farming might become something like waste management where it's one of the better paying jobs out because no one wants to do it

High paying, low skilled labor will always be out there just for the dirty job factor. I laugh at people when they say "who will farm the fields if we kick out the illeagals?" There was some statistic that came out showing that it was some number under 10% illeagal immigrants or immigrants PERIOD that do manual farm labor. I love the lies liberals tell, and the worst part is people believe them because the liberals control the media....

In terms of settlement for the accident, you are entitled to the full amount of the auto damages including rental car reimbursement during the ordeal, all medical bills, and any other out of pcoket expenses such as time missed from work, etc.. In terms of "pain and suffering" a general rule of thumb is you are entitled to 2-3 times the total of the medical bills. That rule of thumb is just a rough estimate and varies from case to case depending on what physical damage you sustained and for how long you are forced to live with these conditions.

This might prove to be a good (or bad) review of Larry H. Parker, too. I've always wondered who I'd call if I were ever in your situation. Please keep us posted!
