Who pays for my medical bills after a personal injury?
Typically, the at-fault party’s insurance covers your medical bills. In most cases, health insurance, MedPay, or personal injury liens can help cover expenses temporarily. Personal injury liens are usually paid out with a portion of your final settlement for doctors, surgeons, physical therapy, etc. At Deldar, we aggressively negotiate for higher settlements so you can walk home with more money!
Do I need to see a specific doctor after an accident?

What if I don’t have health insurance?
