[quote:cRoSS FiRe:MV8xNTYxOTM1XzI1ODA1MTEzX0FBQzE0NjI4] Remember that your attorney works for you, and you can ask him/her about the other party's policy limits. You have a right to ask for a copy of your file at any given time. Any decent legal assistant could sit down with you and review your file (I used to with many clients). I'm guessing you have a typical contingency attorney and you have a standard 1/3 contract? Typical settlements are 3x the actual damages incurred by the injured party. As far as going above and beyond policy limits, it's complicated. Possible, but complicated, and depends on the rules of your county court (factor in possible/likely tort reform legislation in your state). If criminal charges are involved against the responsible party, that changes the game as well. Not enough information to go on, and I wouldn't even ballpark for you (ethics violation). Get cozy with your attorney. If he/she is inaccessible, you have every right to seek another attorney. Best of luck. [/quote]

I have a great attorney who is also a doctor.I have 100 thousand personal injury coverage on my policy and 100 thousand under insured motorist with two vehicles.Stacked
I do not know the insurance of the at fault driver
But I am guessing it was under his parents policy
I really would appreciate if anyone knows a ball park figure
I am sure its a policy limit case.
Is there any situation where you can get more then the policy limit.
Thanks
Please do not think I am greedy
I am not
If you were in my shoes you would probably ask too
My attorney is taking this case to trail if there is no settlement.So this makes me think,that the other person had very good insurance and not the minimum
