I have a beautiful healthy child today. Nine months ago I slipped and fell on a Pizza Hut wet floor and started contracting, ten hours later I gave cesarean birth to my breeched little boy low on amniotic fluid, two hours before the schedualed birth. This man from WAUSAU Insurance is trying to rip me off and he doesn't even sound like a college graduate. I think I should get a laywer? Here is the first of the EMAIL correspondance:
Me:
Re-open claim number PX346-049578-01. I did not sign anything stating the claim should close or I would settle. You suggested I get a lawyer on this matter since you will not budge on the amount. I will get one. It is funny I have to tell you how to do your own job; If a document is not signed it means an agreement was not met.

Thank you for your e-mail. Unfortunately, I will not re-open your claim at this time. If you have additional information or records to support an injury, please forward for my review. At this time, based on all known information and facts, the offer of $250.00 to settle your claim is more then fair and reasonable. I am sorry you do not feel this way, but this claim will remain closed. Please have a good day, mam.
Me-
If you do not open my case how can you offer me anything? Interesting. Another interesting thing is that this is my claim and you need my signature to close it, that is common knowledge. So lets bring some knowledge to the table here and realize the facts. The staff at the establishments which you choose to insure need to practice better saftey, which they failed to do so on 12/17/07. I will settle at the price your company will spend teaching Pizza Hut employees proper saftey precautions.

your claim is closed and I will not re-open it at this time. There is no rule, law, or statute that forces me to have your signature to close my claim down. Whoever told you this, is wrong. I only need your signature to send you $250.00, but I do not need your signature to close my file. Your file is closed at this time as we have reached our final offer in this claim. You suffered no injuries, but I have offered you $250.00 to settle your claim based on known medical injuries and facts. $250.00 is the final amount that I will offer on this claim. If you chose to accept this more then reasonable amount, I will re-open my file and proceed with settlement. I am sorry that you disagree with our evaluation of your file, but we believe this amount is more then fair and reasonable and that you have not shown me any evidence to the contrary.
