MY ALLSTATE HORROR STORY

In Jan 2007 I was sitting at a stop light in Columbus GA and was rear-ended by a vehicle going approx. 45mph. The driver was insured with Allstate. My car was a total loss. I was taken to St Francis Medical Center and released. I had subsequent doctor visits at Hughston Clinic, Aspinwall Chiro, and W GA Rehab. In short, the medical bills totaled $13,313 after 6 months of physical therapy. Now Allstate says that the care I received was above what was "reasonable and customary" for that "TYPE" of accident.

 They say the physical therapy care lasted for "too long a period of time". Now they expect me to take $7,913 out of my pocket to help pay the medical bills. They have offered to pay $5,400 of the costs. The adjuster told me that the State of GA Law dictates the guidelines used to reimburse victims of auto accidents. At this point in time it looks as if I will be looking for a good lawyer, as I do not have, nor would I pay that type of money for an accident that was not my fault. Any Attorney that thinks I have a good case can call my dad at 706-594-6328.

MY POINT IS THEY ARE CORRUPT AND DOING PEOPLE WRONG.

Please if anyone has insurance with these people please cancel. The only way to fight large companies is with the lose of accounts and money.

"There is no incentive for insurance companies to do what is right, such as live up to the promises made in their policies. Tort reformers fueled by insurance money think big business and the insurance industry need to be protected against "runaway juries." It's the other way around. Big business and the insurance industry have always been able to take care of themselves. The little people need protection from them. This country was founded on the common law right of the little guy to get into court with his hired gun to fight the oppressor, be it big government or big business. Take that away and we have nothing left. Look around. It's being whittled away, bit by bit, caps on damages here, restrictions on jury trials there. It won't end until we recognize the enemy and join together to take a stand against them. It will take the little people to do this together".
