If I was in a car accident 5 days ago and it was the other person's fault, what are my rights if i am still in pain?
Question Details: I am still in pain 5 days later. I did not go to the doctor; I was hoping I would recover in a couple days. I now think that I should see a doctor, am now I worried that I have waited too long for the other person's insurance to cover it.
You should see a doctor tomorrow since your pain has persisted. Also, if you wait any longer, you will have a problem convincing the insurance company you were injured in the accident. How much is the damage to your car?
No, you haven't waited too long but don't wait any longer to go to a doctor. The longer you wait the more the insurance company will argue that you got a new injury in the meantime.
You should also think about hiring a lawyer right away so the lawyer can get working on your case early.
