Re: what can I do?
If you had no insurance, you fall under Prop. 213. You can only recover your medical bills and wage loss, in addition to the damage to your car and loss of use of your car. You are NOT entitled to pain and suffering.
You can read more about Prop 213 and some of the tactics of the insurance companies at my blog, www.calpiblog.com
Re: what can I do?
You have 2 years to file suit against the other party for your injuries. The statute of limitation is longer for property damage. You can also attempt to recover for loss of income and substitute transportation, if any, and pain and suffering. Hope you feel better soon.
