Insurance

Insurance or laywer payout?
Not sure what to do at this stage.
Insurers are willing to compensate me for a fall.
Am getting conflicting advice.
Some say go to laywer for sure, insurance will rip me off.
Others say don't go to laywer as they will take a chunk of your compensation and you may be left with far less than the insurance offer.
In general which one do you think accept, laywer or insurer
I have been offered a FINAL settlement of $20,000 plus 3 months wages paid in advance.
$20,000 is for pain and suffering, i had a slip and fall on ice, all my tests are ok, i have seen a neurologist as i still get dizzy, word mixing probs, headaches, short term memory, ct scans are normal but i still have ongoing pain in my shoulder and neck and it is very painful, i may not be able to work in future because of this.
Neurologist expects i will improve in 3 months with the symtoms.
I spoke to lawyer and he thinks he could get me a LOT more for my case, he said the offer was very low.

This seems a bit extreme just for being a couple of days late by accident. And since the bill has been paid which was only $44.00, And it couldnt be reposession the house is paid for. I think I am being harassed. Can they do this? I have been a good customer all along, I was ill last month and forgot to pay the bill this is BS. I am going to sue them.

The other day, I was picked up by a Sunstar Ambulance that was called by a police officer who thought I was having a panic attack.
I was taken 2 blocks and turned into a guinea pig at the local hospital where they found absolutely nothing wrong with me.
A month later, I got a bill from them for $470. I sent the bill to my medical insurance company and they remanded it back to me saying they wouldn't pay it. So now I'm stuck with it, but I was wondering if there were any technicalities that would allow me not to pay. For instance, the fact that I didn't call the ambulance. And the fact that I verbally protested to being taken anywhere.
I was also wondering whether they will take me to small claims court and what the penalty would be for my not showing up and, in eventuality, never paying them.
I'm a college student. So that should shed some light on my monetary predicament.

However, They have taken the premium's out of my paycheck every pay period and they show it on the check. The insurance company also says I will be liable for any services they paid for during this period. What can I do.

Is death due to AIDS is a bar for claiming Life insurance benefits? Recently, on of our office staff affected with AIDS was admitted and died in a Government Hospital. Some well wishers(?) advised their family members that they can not get their Life Insurance benefits if the death certificate indicates AIDS as a disease. Hence he was discharged just before death. They took a certificate from a different doctor with cause of death as heart attack. Is it true? Is death due to AIDS or HIV+ve related deaths are excluded for purpose of preferring Life Insurance claims.
