A big truck ran into the back of me 4 years ago and I have a herniated disc. After 4 years we are starting to settle. The guy who ran into me's insurance company offered me his full coverage. $25,000. To get that I have to sign a covenant not to sue to release the guy of all claims. Then, my lawyer wants to fo after my underinsured policy. I am very worried about doing that. Should I sign the paper? Please give me some advice? Is it a law that you have to take the $25,000 before you can go after your own insurance?

IMHO, I wouldn't sign until you talk with your docotor and get all the facts on long term effects your injury will cause you. If you're doctor says long term care is necessary, go back to the negottiating table with your doctors findings and start negotiating for compenstation.
Remember, your attorney doesn't give a rats a** if you become debiliated 10 years form now.
