Remember that the laws in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and South Dakota and surrounding areas are different.  You should consult with a auto / car / motor vehicle accident or injury lawyer who is familiar with the laws of the State in which you were injured and has experience taking on large insurance companies in the pursuit of compensation for victims of personal injury accidents.
QUESTION: Where will the money to pay for my injuries come from?
 
ANSWER: The responsible driver’s insurance company pays your compensation in many states.  If you are in a no-fault insurance system state, your own insurance company may pay some of your compensation.  If the responsible party doesn’t have enough insurance cover to compensate you for all of your injuries, your own insurance policy may have coverage for the remainder of your compensation.
