Yes, you do owe that 20 percent. However, if someone else is at fault, that 20 percent balance is part of what you are allowed to make a claim against the other driver and or their insurance. Once the case resolves, it is common for the lawyer to negotiate that 20 percent balance and any part that was unpaid, either due to a PIP deductible or after the $10,000 of PIP benefits exhausts.
If you have been in a car accident and believe the other vehicle is at fault, please feel free to call the accident lawyer at Drucker Law Offices, which is attorney Gary J. Drucker. At Drucker law offices, there is a free consultation with the injury attorney who will discuss your case with you. Mr. Drucker gives his cellular phone to all the clients he believes that “personal injury deserves personal attention.” And of course, there is no fee unless you recover money in your accident case.
