I currently have Fetch pet insurance and they dropped my cats coverage to 50% from 80% bc they thought her account was unbalanced. They basically penalized me for using the coverage I pay for. For those of you who have had pet insurance for more than 2-3 years, which ones have you been happy with? I also, just got my new cat lemonade pet insurance but now I am having doubts. Pls helppp

I was rear-ended last year, and the at-fault driver's insurance covered the $14,700 in repairs. Afterward, I hired an appraiser, who reported a diminished value of $4,175. Once, I submitted the diminished value claim to the at-fault driver's insurance company, they offered me $300 and then began ignoring my attempts to communicate further. After filing a complaint with the Office of the Commissioner of Insurance, the insurance company finally got back to me and offered $2,000. It's less than I was hoping to get, but I'm worried that pushing for more could cause them to rescind the offer and force me to go to court. So, my question is, if I try (and fail) to get more, will the offer of $2,000 still stand?

State is Michigan. I want to keep this as private as possible. Basically I had a double mastectomy back in the beginning of January. It was supposed to include liposuction on my sides to prevent 'dog ears'. I traveled 9 hours for this surgery. The swelling was so bad under my armpits I couldn't really see the open wounds. When I would do my cleaning and dressing changes every day I noticed a lot of discharge and blood. I had both of my sisters look at the wounds since I couldn't see them. I ended up going to the ER. The did cultures of both side wounds and started me on an IV antibiotic and an oral one. I contacted my surgeons office and got scheduled with a PA. They tried saying there was no infection and just to put Vaseline on it. They then extended my LOA at work. The ER contacted me and said that I had E. Coli and a staph infection. They changed the antibiotics because the one they prescribed wouldn't treat the infection. I relayed this info to my surgeons team. At this point I still haven't met with my surgeon after two months. I googled how to treat the wounds and took the care into my own hands. No doctor in my area will touch the surgical sights since they didn't perform the surgery. Two months later and I still have an open wound with discharge. Fast forward to this past Friday my health insurance sends me a subrogation claim letter to fill out. I have never heard of this before. It wanted me to file a police report and a LARA report. It also asked if I've hired an attorney. I called the state police post and they said to call the attorney general for any medical malpractice suits. So my question is how do I find the proper attorney and what are my steps now? I live in a small town and don't even think there are any attorneys that deal with medical malpractice. I have very detailed documentation of my infection and medical reports. Any advice is welcome.

I just had a Total Loss on my home which was insured by Amica Mutual. Almost all reputable insurance carriers pay out the face value of the policy. Amica decided to use an obscure New York loophole to "AVERAGE" out what THEY feel I should get instead of what I paid for. They offered me less than 50% of THEIR ADJUSTOR'S replacement cost with the balance paid out after "THEIR REVIEW AND APPROVAL".

Hello! I was in a no-fault accident pm 2/25/25. The lady ran the red light and hit me. Here's the thing, my car is a 2023 outlander PHEV (57k miles) that just came off the lot and still had temp tags. I had the car for two weeks. Market value for my car states anywhere between 28k-32k. I called around to local banks as well to make sure I wasn't wrong in my numbers. Root insurance is only wanting to offer me $23,660. My car was in EXCELLENT condition considering it just came off the lot yet they listed it as Average. Additionally, they have forgone alloy wheels on the report for what ever reason. Am I able to dispute this? I already consulted a lawyer for the personal injury portion.

Hi I would like to hear your thoughts on Wawanesa Insurance? Plan to switch from AAA to Wawanesa. AAA double my insurance, no accident or traffic ticket. Please let me know. TIA.

Hoping someone could possibly shed a little light on my situation. My daughter wrecked her car in front of our house on March 2nd. On March 5th Progressive sent the tow truck to retrieve the vehicle which they towed to an IAA auction yard to have it appraised. The appraiser went on the 7th. I spoke with someone from progressive on the 8th who needed to verify a few things. She said something about it being a total loss which at that time I didn’t know, which apparently she thought I had already been contacted. I told her I hadn’t so she said well I’ll just go over it real quick even though this isn’t my department. She said that it was a deemed a total loss and they valued my car at $8200 something (I don’t really remember the exact number) Little lower than I expected but okay. Anyway I logged into the app to check the status of the claim and I do see it’s a total loss but the only thing I see is the appraisers repair estimate for $8289 and the deduction for the deductible. Is that what they are actually valuing the car at? Or is that simply a repair estimate? We still owe on the car so I’m trying to plan accordingly. I’ve contacted our adjuster but have left messages with no return call as of yet.

Hi. I have to decide whether to accept or reject a lump sum offer from long-term disability insurance. I ran some numbers and after taxes, I think the lump sum offered is equivalent to almost 9 years of monthly benefits. In this math, I reduced the monthly benefit by 35% because I think that if I turn down the lump sum, I will have to get a lawyer to help me through whatever else the insurance company will try to do to reduce or deny benefits going forward. I had to appeal a denial a few years ago and back then, disability lawyers were taking about 33-40% of benefits. (I had decided to pay a flat fee for help with the appeal only.) I became disabled at age 30 so I have quite a long ways to go and don’t know if I have the mental, emotional, and financial resources to get through another denial. I still have PTSD from that period, which was also during COVID. Even though I don’t see how I could suddenly start making money, I feel like at least the lump sum is a sure thing. If I reject it, what kinds of things will the insurance company do for the rest of my benefit period in order to balance their books? I am especially worried about extra uncertainty with SSDI. If my SSDI payments get cut, my long-term disability insurance payments are supposed to go back to the pre-SSDI amount, which is more than double what they’ve been paying since offsetting for SSDI. If this happens to a lot of people at once, what kinds of things will the insurance company do? Right now, rejecting the lump sum feels like I would be subjecting myself to a scary black box of strategies to reduce or deny my benefits. I appreciate any information that could help me make a more informed decision. Thank you!!

I was involved in a car accident in Michigan, and the at-fault driver’s insurance denied my mini-tort claim because they don’t have mini tort coverage. I still have out-of-pocket repair costs ($1,000), and I want to file a small court claims case against the at-fault driver. I have the **police report**, repair estimates, and insurance denial letter as evidence. **My questions** ❓ 1. **How do I file a small court claims lawsuit in Michigan?.** 2. **What court do I file in—where the accident happened or where the driver lives?.** 3. **How do I serve the at-fault driver properly?.** 4. **What happens if they ignore the lawsuit or refuse to pay after a judgment?.** 5. **Has anyone successfully won a mini-tort case in small claims court?.** Any advice or experience would be really helpful! Thank you!

Hey folks, I’m dealing with a frustrating situation involving my apartment’s property management and my insurance company, and I could really use some advice. There was a minor fire accident in my apartment, and the total bill is under $5,000. My renter’s insurance is willing to cover the cost, but they require the property management to sign a release form. The problem is, the property management’s legal team wants to make edits to the form, but my insurance company’s legal team won’t allow any modifications. So now I’m stuck in this deadlock where: • My insurance won’t pay without the signed release form. • The property management won’t sign it unless they can edit it. • My insurance won’t accept any edits. I feel like I’m caught in the middle with no way to move forward. Has anyone dealt with something similar? Any suggestions on how to break this stalemate? I just want to get this resolved without it dragging on forever. Would appreciate any insights!
