LANDLORD WONT GIVE ME THEIR INSURANCE INFORMATION SO I CAN FILE A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT CLAIM.?

by **bronsin** » Sun Jul 08, 2012 8:52 pm

While standing on the front porch at the top of the steps, The area under my feet caved in and I fell to the bottom of 6 steps braking my ankle. This was in March. She still will not give me her Insurance information. Now before you say "Get an Attorney", what can "I" do to get her to give me this information.

File a court case.

Honestly, if your landlord is refusing to give you that info, you will have to contact a lawyer and go that route. That's really the only solution in this case. By doing that, it will cost the landlord that much more, but that's not your fault.

You can't do anything since she won't give you the insurance information although you can sue the property owner in small claims court. But if you want to go against tje insurance then you will need a lawyer/ attorney.

If you asked and she is refusing to give you the information that is all you can do without legal proceedings.

You can't force her to give to give your the information, you can't physically abuse her to get it, so all you can do is ask and if she doesn't want to give it to you that is her right

You need an attorney

Plain and simple, exactly what everyone else says. You need an attorney, and if all goes through and you can provide proof of your allegations and what happened along with medical bills and such then nine times out of ten it will go smoothly on your end and then your landlord will possibly required to cover court costs and insurance information. Now depending on her insurance agency, she will probably end up having to pay out of pocket with that due to the fact that it is after their 90 window where you have to report it to finish it. So she will have to pay those two things, and since she is providing bad landlord service by doing this, she will more than likely lose her license to be a landlord and will be fined for that along with the faulty wood work and lack of repairs so on and so forth. Like everyone and I said, go get an attorney most will give you a free consultation, and then let it go from there. They will be more likely to know what you can and should do.

There is no way around an attorney unless she is required to give the info and even then you may need one.

If the amount in question is above the limits for small claims in your area (and it probably is) the case would have to be filed in circuit court.

This is a personal injury claim. There are tons of ambulance chasers out there that know how to handle this type of case, and most won't charge you a dime up front. They will, however, take anywhere from 30-50% of any winnings. Depends on state law, but they will take the maximum allowed in your state.

If you haven't seen an add on TV for one, look at your phone book. You'll find them. You'll need a shower after taking with them, every time, but without them, you don't really have much chance.

Well, you can tell her that if she won't agree to give it to you, you will have no choice but to hire an attorney. That works with some people.

Good luck. :)
