Beware of Checks in the Mail
By David B. Peel. Special to THE VIEW 38002
A lawyer was sharing
about a man who was in
an accident where he was
injured. Just nine days
following the impact, an
insurance company sent
him a check for $1,000.
Out of work, he could use the money.
And they certainly owed him. And his
bills kept coming. He looked at the check.
The check indicates “Payment Type:
LOSS,” and “In Payment Of: Bodily
Injury Coverage.”
There was no other release or
explanation. He deposited the check.
Three months later he was told he
would need to undergo extensive surgery
for injuries from the crash.
He now owes all the $1,000 back to his
health insurance under subrogation. If he
doesn’t pay, they won’t pay for the
surgery. Oh, and he also has a $5,000
deductible.
The insurance company had to have at
least $25,000 coverage. He had his own
Underinsured Motorists ($100,000) but
they won’t pay until he took all the limits
of $25,000 from the liability coverage. He
did not.
The insurance company claims it was
“settled”.
Don’t be this man.
