Dear Lawyer.

On April 16, my husband drove towards my apartment gate. Someone was backing from the parking lot. The parking lot was behind a garage. As we saw this car backing out, we completely stopped. There was still a short distance between us. I thought the driver already seen us thus expected her to stop or pull the car ahead thus didn't blow the horn. But the car continued backing quickly thus the rear bumper of that car hit the front bumper of my car. In this case, we were on the drive way, she was backing; we completely stopped, she continued backing without looking back at all. The responsibility is obvious.

It's our first time to have an accident. We had no experience thus didn't realize we should call police immediately. The driver was a girl, she said she had called her insurance company to come to investigate. We trusted her and waited. After about 20 minutes, she said no need to wait as she already reported the case, her insurance company will directly contact us. Again we trusted her and we exchanged insurance information and we let her leave as she said she had something urgent. After that, we didn't receive any call from her insurance company Allstate. We then made the claim ourselves. After several weeks, the claim was rejected cause the driver denied the responsibility. By denying the fact she hit our car after we completely stopped, she told her insurance company that we hit her car after she stopped in the parking lot instead. The claim process had been quite exhausting. Later we thought anyway it's our fault to trust this kind of people and didn't keep her on site, thus we just gave up without further effort. However, the shameless thing happen again that she wants to claim the damage from our insurance company. I just can't accept such a shameless thing cause it seems to illustrate that being honest and to trust people will finally be doomed.

We took photos on the site The picture captured each car's position just after the accident happened. They can prove she was lying by claiming that her car was just partly out of the parking lot. In these pictures, her car was already on the drive way towards gate and our car is on the way, too. It's clearly shown there who took away other's right-of-the-way. Previously, I thought we just let her go since we are foreigners , don't want to take trouble. But as she bit back, now I want to sue her for lying to not compensate us, for cheating aiming to let us who are the victims of her careless driving to compensate her. I also want to sue her not only for the damage to my car, but the mentally suffering incurred to me and my husband by her cheating and shameless behavior.This is just unbearable.

I called several lawyer. There is no one even interested in looking at the pictures. The question is always the same: did anyone injured in the accident? Maybe because no one injured physically, they thought it's not profitable to only fight for justice. I think we are injured, too. We are badly injured inside, we are injured because it gave us some much stress, and from now on we may not dare to trust anybody. That's a terrible loss by feeling being honest and forgiving only make yourself badly fooled. If the society and its being respected lawyers don't care about this loss, it may end up encouraging cheaters. Will that be a loss to good people?

I know you are a lawyer. Now my question is: in our case, who can take back justice for us? Will there be any lawyer who not only interested in injury and death but also in the "small" rightness? If so, could you please tell me. I will need his/her help.

Yours,

Wen
