Your advice saved me! (Insurance Law)

Tue, 10 Jul 2001 01:56:00 GMT

Hi from Michigan
I want to thank you very much for your advice, you saved me. My insurance carrier (life ins) for my car lease had refused to honor the policy, you said to contact my state dept. of insurance, and a lawyer. No lawyer would go up against the car dealership/ins. because they own most of the town. They took my car and sent me a bill for $7,000 for the remainder of the lease! The state took care of it, they said they had a lot of complaints against Chrysler and Western Diversified. The ins. co. has now paid the lease amount to Chrysler and sent me a check for $1,600. I haven't cashed it yet, because I believe Chrysler owes me a car or a settlement now that they have their money. am I right? They haven't responded yet. Anyway, I never would have thought to go to the state for help, you saved me a lot of money and a nervous breakdown! Thank you so much!
