I would ask the insurance company why they believe the care is excessive.

Is this the offending party's insurance company she is dealing with? If so, you must play hardball with them. They try and berate and hardnose people and manipulate them into thinking they are getting a deal of a lifetime. If he caused the accident and caused $5k in damages and ongoing medical care cost $3500, I would expect my car to be made whole as well as my health regardless of the cost.
Thanks Banshee, I don't think she has verbally agreed to anything either. That's what pisses me off!!! What's the purpose of insurance if they are "making" her pay?!?!? Both parties have the same insurance company, and yes she is dealing with the offending party's people. I think the "letter" she got was from my g/f's insurance people

Does anybody know the statute of limitations on a car accident claim for California? I think I'm just going to ask our lawyer to take her case if it's not too late.
