Good thing your not injured.
Cars are easy to replace.
As for the blood-suckers, I'm not sure how it is over there but never sign a contract that gives them XX%+expenses. Make them absorb expenses so you don't get charged for $500 dollar phone calls and $300 so YOU can stop by and sign a single piece of paper.
My sister-in-law was really banged up a few years back and by the time she was done she didn't have enough to cover the hospital bills but the lawyer walked away with $30,000 in expenses as well as $120,000 of the $300,000 settlement. Originally they were supposed to get 30% but they hid some clause in the contract that said if they "settled" they got 40% She found out later they had NEVER taken a case to trial.
