What Is a Reasonable Compensation Claim for an Pain and Suffering Incurred From a Car Accident?
Question by circusboys: what is a reasonable compensation claim for an pain and suffering incurred from a car accident?
I was hit by a guy running a red light and wasn’t seriously injured but expect to be very sore for a couple of weeks. I am an actor and under contract to perform a live show, so taking time off is not an option- it would end my career in this town, so I have to work in pain. Also, I am unable to use painkillers or muscle relaxers due to a history with drug abuse, so the pain is full on. I don’t feel the need to contact an attorney, but feel I should be compensated somewhat for this guy’s negligence.

Question by dakcloud10: I need to find three credible sources from the internet on Drug Addiction?
I am looking for information and statistics on incarceation and treatment and the effects it has on our society.
Best answer:
Answer by Toad
‘Credible’ made me rethink many suggestions. Many wonderful organizations out there though, for the type of statistical credibility I believe you are looking for, I am leaning toward these:
http://www.nida.nih.gov/
http://www.samhsa.gov/
http://www.oxford.gov.uk/community/drug-addiction.cfm
however, I most often would research well beyond these three to feel ‘sufficient’ credibility, though that is true of all topics.
