What do you mean??? I thought you were considering going to law school, but you don't understand how anyone has any grounds to sue?

You do understand that a settlement is basically an attempt to pull the blanket over the fire to put it out, right? It's basically an attempt to stay out of court. It would cost Goodwill more to defend theirselves in a courtroom than it would to settle out and make the situation right to where Marie is satisfied. The driver was 100% at fault, and it seems as if he can't deny anything at this point since he got out and inspected the damage and then took off again. There's obviously no question as to whether or not Goodwill is liable, since the vehicle was clearly marked and they've already admitted that they had a driver in the area and know exactly who the guy is.

This is CLEARLY a case that could end up in court if Goodwill doesn't play their cards right. No one is asking for anything unreasonable! She just wants the situation to be corrected. She had a perfectly good Jeep before this asshole ran over it, and I'm sure that's all she expects.



Marie: What do you mean Allstate isn't willing to help you out? Are you telling me their subrogration team isn't even going to fucking help you get the ball rolling????? That's what they fucking do for a living! They pursue other companies and/or insurance companies (and customers) to prevent their own customer from coming out of pocket, essentially.

I predict it may take some time if you don't stay on their ass, but things are going to work out in your favor. Let me know what you want me to do.
