Hi,

Just a few questions on this topic. I have tons of evidence to win this case easily if they choose to force me to file a PIP Suit.

How long does a PIP Suit take usally?
Is this something insurance companies want to go through?
What are the benefits for policy holder to through the PIP Suit? (They pay my lawyer fees?)
Can the court grant more than the claim amount?

Varies with the state and how the attorney handles it. I'd venture anywhere from 3-12 months.

Is this something insurance companies want to go through?


Why would anyone _want_ to be sued?

The benefit is that your medical expenses get paid. In most cases attorney's fees are not paid.

Can the court grant more than the claim amount?

Depends on the state. It might be possible to alleged Bad Faith. In that case you could be award punitive damages. This is unlikely though.

You need to wait to see if PIP is denied. If it is, I'd recommend speaking to an attorney to answer these questions.
