He's fine, but the vehicle is totaled. His fault. He's pushing 81, and his memory is starting to go, so neither of us realized his insurance wasn't up to date. It expired at the end of June, and he usually does the 6 month payment thing. We dont know if it got lost in the mail or what, but he's currently uninsured. He's with Allstate and has been with them for decades, but they simply referred him to another insurance company when they called him back to explain his account was no longer active. Despite him funneling thousands and thousands to them through the decades hes been with them, one missed payment seems to be the end all be all. I'm going to call them personally tomorrow to try and figure this out, but I was wondering if you guys had any advice for me?

I got rear ended (hit and run) but it resulted in me hitting someone else. The guy I hit has a tiny scratch on his car and there’s deep crack mine that’s barely noticeable. The guy didn’t seem to care, he was fine, and seemed like he was in a hurry to get out of there before the police arrived. I got his license plate and he got my insurance information but I forgot to get his. Since there’s like barely any damage and no one got hurt do you think he’ll report it? I’m worried because I have USAA but it’s the bare minimum and when checking my insurance policy, I realized I put that I own my vehicle but it’s actually leased. I still owe a few thousand on it. I want to be honest with my insurance but I am so worried about the resulting possibly financial burden. I live in VA if that matters.

My ADHD prescription has all of sudden stopped being covered by BCBS TN. What’s the fastest way to contact them to resolve this? I have emailed, chat function not available, and I have now been on hold for 3 hours. Has this happened to anyone else? I’m currently at Walgreens don’t know if that matters. But again, it has been covered in the past. It’s not feasible to pay $100+ for a prescription every month nor do I want to.

So Lemonade had me take some house photographs and asked some questions as we’re approaching the first renewal of our home insurance. Separately, we had some hail storms and our roof got beat up. I had a roofer take a look and he said the roof is a bit old (the pictures he took supported that) and it has impact damage. Well as I’m researching my options, Lemonade says they are dropping us because we have a tree that is close to the house, it’s a small one, and our sewer line is cast iron under the house. Since the hail damage occurred under the Lemonade insurance, is it worth trying to file a claim before they drop me? Will it make it harder for me to find insurance? I imagine a damaged roof is harder to insure than a new one but I’m not sure

Created a Reddit account to share this year's premium increase on every post or topic re: Healthy Paws. As a loyal customer since 2011, who has been dealing with the already massive price increases every year since 2020/21 but forced to deal with it, I can't anymore and am being forced to cancel. Sharing this for the greater good, and won't even share further details in hope the numbers you see below speaks for itself. Apologies that I cannot seem to post a screenshot. Started around $34 in 2011. These numbers are for 2 small dogs, with the majority of the increase related to the old one).

Our cat Miles was experiencing bleeding gums, bad breath and difficulty eating. We brought him to the vet and they thought he might have tooth reabsorption. They gave us an estimate for a dental and we submitted it to ASPCA. ASPCA approved it and we went ahead with the dental a week later. Dental was complete and ended up not being as bad at the vet thought and he ended up with a cleaning and no extractions. We submitted to ASPCA and the claim was denied. They are saying that it's a pre-existing condition because Miles went to the vet last June after getting into a house plant and the vet noticed gum inflammation from it. The vet gave him an anti inflammatory and notated in his October check up that his gums and teeth were in good condition-- in our minds, the inflammation from eating the plant was "cured." ASPCA will cover pre-existing conditions that have been cured for 180 days. The vet used the word "stomatitis" in the records during the June visit and that's why ASPCA is denying us. Because stomatitis isn't considered a curable condition. Our vet tried to reason with them but they won't budge. Our biggest disappointment is with the bait and switch-- when I called to ask why the estimate was approved and the claim was denied, despite them having his full medical records both times, they said they got "new information" in that week between the estimate and the procedure. Not sure how that could be because they had everything about him from vet for the estimate. Not a great start to our relationship with ASPCA.

Got a policy update email that will take effect in 63 days. Going from $196/month to $567/month. This is actually insane. I got on phone with them and they said it’s not my amount of claims but they consider the state of CA and thst since it is pooled insurance it is what works best for everyone. I was like, this payment is like a luxury car?! The only thing they said to do is lower the reimbursement and up the annual deductible; right now I have 70%/$500 and if I switch to 50%/$1000 it is $372. My dog is 14 years old for the record. I just feel stuck and frustrated. Especially cause switching to a new one means everything becomes pre-existing. Does anyone have a similar experience? Advice?

I had a 2000 Impala and I was insured with liability 70 bucks a month with progressive . Some drunk driver collided into me and destroyed my car. Their insurance paid me out. I got a new Impala. A 2002 . My rates where above 250 $ generally and found bristol west for 230. Is this even real? What is going on in todays day? This is like… outrageous? Borderline abusive lol. Can anyone guide me as to where to look for a cheaper insurance. My car was 2000$ cash . Ill be paying more to insure it in a year than what the car was paid for lol

Location: Philly, Pa Any ideas??? Back in July our dog bit our neighbor. One of the kids let the dog out, and he bit them. We knew from the jump we were going to get sued. We got a lawyer when we received a letter from theirs. They wanted our homeowners insurance info. Welp..... come to find out, ours doesn't cover animal injuries or damage. So, after a month or 2, they asked if we wanted to just settle out of court. Of course we did. They came at us with a settlement. We weren't able to get the full amount but came back to them with a lump sum right away then asked to make 2 monthly payments to settle the rest. After weeks, they declined it and we received a letter from a new attorney asking for our homeowners insurance. Ummm... we already told them we didn't have coverage. So, our lawyer was going to get with them, we paid him another retainer (ughhhh), and he told us there was nothing to do as of now until he hears something. He said he would get back to us. It's been 2 months and still have not heard anything. What is going on???? Like we were going give them exactly what they wanted. They were just playing with us I guess and now we just wait??? Any ideas on why the wait game? I just want this over with. And just in case you all want to know, we are not made of money. We have 2 kids in college and 2 little kids. We live pay check to pay check and had to get a loan to pay the lawyer and that settlement they first asked for. It was a totally misfortunate accident, we were devastated for them, and are deeply sorry. We are good people with a good family. Thanks

Location: Georgia Two months ago, [I posted here](https://www.reddit.com/r/legaladvice/comments/1ikves7/frustrated_with_attorneys_lack_of_communication/) about my legal case, and I’m finally seeing some traction. However, as my attorney is preparing to file the statement of claim, I’m getting minimal explanation about his legal reasoning, and I’m concerned he may be rushing my case. Here’s where things stand: * My attorney initially filed for Magistrate Court, but after withdrawing that case in December (just days before the court date), he mentioned we should pursue Superior Court instead. * This past week, he drafted a second statement of claim. When I pressed him with questions about how the law applies to my case, his responses have been minimal, often just one or two sentences. * I believe my case, while complicated, does have grounds for pursuing punitive damages. However, the statement he drafted only outlines compensatory damages. * In my last email, I asked him to explain why punitive damages would not apply to my case. His response was simply, "I don't think it applies," with no further explanation. Additionally, he mentioned that Magistrate Court in Georgia is capped at $15,000, but earlier he had said he was planning to file in Superior Court. I’m assuming he plans to file next week. I’m planning to call ARAG Legal (through which I hired him) and consult with other attorneys for a second opinion. I’m feeling extremely frustrated and unsure **whether I should cut my losses or trust that his legal reasoning is sound** and proceed to move on with the case. **I would appreciate feedback on the strength of my claims, potential damages, and whether filing in Magistrate or Superior Court would be more appropriate for my case.** >**Case Information:** This case involves a breach of contract with elements of constructive eviction. >I was a tenant at an apartment complex from 2017 until December 2023. In March 2023, a new property management company took over the complex. In June 2023, I signed a new one-year lease under the new management. >Over the next eight months, I was improperly charged approximately $5,700 in various fees, including: >Late fees >Charges inconsistent with the lease terms >Early termination fees >I made several attempts to resolve the billing issues through documented communication (five emails), but the management did not correct the charges. >Due to ongoing safety concerns and unresolved billing issues, I chose to terminate my lease early in December 2023, sending certified letters to both the property and regional office. Unfortunately, the incorrect fees were eventually sent to collections, which negatively impacted my credit. >Safety Concerns / Constructive Eviction: Starting in June 2023, I reported multiple instances of loitering around my apartment, including one individual repeatedly sitting on my apartment steps and leaving trash. Despite repeated requests for increased security measures, no action was taken. >On October 31, 2023, a guest staying with me had their car stolen (police report filed). Residents living directly below me were implicated in the theft, and afterward, I experienced retaliatory behavior that made staying in the apartment unsafe. >
