If a lawyer believes that the client has a valid, honest claim then that attorney will be happy to take it into a courtroom. If the insurance company has information that the case if very weak and they also know that the person's attorney isn't willing to put it front of a judge, then that insurer makes an offer. Bottom line is that unless the attorney and the client accept the offer, (which you and your attorney obviously did), no payment is made. You and your attorney could have only received a dime if you had agreed to it and put that in writing. And this is the insurance company's fault how? I had to read through a lot of idiot posts tonight before deciding that this is the one I'll respond to this week. You obviously over-treated. Don't know if that was your idea or the attorney but it wasn't the insurance company who made that choice. Would bet some strong money that there is a WHOLE lot more to this story than you've presented.

If, as you say, your sister had already changed insurance companies and was covered, she should have had proof of those facts and should have been able to prove it in court. Don't know how it works in the state you're in, but here the DPS notifies you when your license is suspended. I'll bet there's more to this story.
