What to do if my mother had a car accident and was hurt?
She had an accident where the other driver was at fault and they blame her. She was injured and her car was badly damaged. What should be done? She has now been off work because of her hand and will also incur new doctor bills due to this accident.

I would like to know the position of the other driver's insurance company. If the other driver is truly at fault, you and your mother may be entitled to compensation for your personal injury. Fee free to visit www.WeaverLawyers.com for information about personal injury situations.

I am so sorry for your mother' accident and for her injuries. I think that it would be best for her to seek legal help in this matter as soon as she possibly can. It is unclear whom you mean when you say "they"blame her. Do you mean the other driver involved in the accident? That is always the case. Or do you mean her insurance company or that the police wrote the report up incorrectly? This needs to be straightened out. In the meantime, if you mother has PIP coverage under her insurance she should use this, as well as her own medical insurance coverage, to obtain the medical treatment that she needs as soon as possible. Good luck.
