    This is fairly normal and it can take months to start getting paid they know if they make it hard enough you may settle for less

    Not sure what help you expect from us? I'm assuming this occurred in the UK. With socialized medicine aren't your medical bills being taken care of?

    As for the rest, if her insurance is not offering interim payments to cover your living expenses, then you have to file suit. Since you have a solicitor, their advice would probably be a lot better than what we can tell you.

    Don't they have worker's comp. (or the equivalent) in Britain?

    No, apparently not: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Workers...United_Kingdom. Interesting.
