If the insurance run around weren't bad enough, I just found out that if the guys insurance pays out a settlement beyond basic medical costs due to owing child-support I would never see any settlement cash.

Unclear what happens to the value of the vehicle, but thankfully the car was still in a family friends name and hadn't been transfer to my partner and I yet. So hopefully I don't need to get a family lawyer for that part.

If you’ve been hurt in a car wreck, you may be entitled to pursue a personal injury claim. But, it’s important to understand that health insurance liens and subrogation claims, rights of repayment, and healthcare provider liens can all take a bite out of your case.  Then there’s another matter to consider: child support liens.

If you owe child support and are behind on your payments, a personal injury claim can be a good chance to catch up those payments. All states have the ability to assert a lien against your personal injury claim if you also owe back payments for child support.  While your medical provider and health insurance liens are paid back first, child support liens come out of your own share of the settlement or jury verdict. Some states are willing to negotiate their liens, and others are not.

It’s critical to have a lawyer advise you on this issue. Many states will hold you in contempt if you settle a personal injury claim and don’t pay back what you owe for child support from your settlement. Most liability insurance carriers will run a background check to determine whether you have a child support obligation, and may not agree to release any funds directly to you until the child support lien is resolved. There are a lot of pitfalls when it comes to liens in general, and child support liens are no exception.


Was making my way through stop and go traffic, things sped up for a little bit but came right back to a full stop.

Guy behind me missed the memo, was totally distracted, and just slammed into me probably around 40 mph.

I had just enough time to realize he wasn't stopping and right as I connected the dots I had an air bag in my chest.

I felt fine during the adrenaline, but definitely feeling a touch concussed now.

Extremely thankful this car had ample crumple zones for real.

It's crazy how normal we think it is, that twice in a day (early morning, still sleepy, and after work, already tired) half the population gets into and controls heavy machinery that kills hundreds of thousands of people every year.
