Nate, you should consider speaking with a personal injury attorney about your case and the offer made by the at fault driver's car insurance adjuster. My personal injury firm can discuss all of the options available to you so that you can make an informed decision about whether to hire an attorney or accept or reject the offer.
I'd consider hiring an attorney. The attorneys at Aaron Herbert are good and have a good reputation among defense firms, which is very helpful when settling cases. In these types of cases you probably won't have to pay anything upfront since these cases are handled on a contingency basis for the plaintiff, which is you in this cases. The firm will probably take anywhere from 25% to 40% of whatever they recover for you, depending on whether the case is settled quickly or your case has to go to trial.
Hiring an atty is a privilege. Atty A Herbert is a good lit atty. Not a bad idea to go in & talk to him or a staff atty. Let them take a look at your case. And go from there. You can also ask legal questions relating to the case. Then u make a final decision as to what's best for you. That's what I suggest.
