No. Do not sue. Turn the other cheek and pay the bill. Suing is not in the spirit of Christ.Never sued anyone before till now. I fall in a restaurant parking lot because of a pot hole filled with ice. Fall on my face and broke my nose and went too the hospital ER. The restaurant is being sold by real estate and is not being kept up on maintenance so the parking lot has many pot holes. They are selling the building and parking lot mainly for the land so the building will be torn down. Do I have too sue the owner's or the insurance company? Will I have too go to court? I just want my medical bill paid which will be 1500 or more dollars.
Thanks.
Many creditors have a right to place a lien on your property without filing a lawsuit. Here are examples of other types of property liens:Never sued anyone before till now.

I don't mean to sound harsh. I just wondered if this hole with ice was so massive that you could not have gone around? Perhaps the hard lesson to learn here is to pay attention to your surroundings and watch where you are walking.
Whatever happened to good old communication with the manager/owner of the place. Be level headed, take a witness and explain that you want compensation for the medical bill.
Would this make them more holy, or saved...to pay the bill on their own? And does forgiving the debt equal forgiving the person?No, you should rather deny your own will, and take the wrong and forgive.
"A believer goes to court against a believer--and before unbelievers at that?...In fact. to have lawsuits at all with one another is already a defeat for you. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded (1 Corinthians 6:6-7)?"
But it doesn't sound like the manager/owner here made any effort to communicate.
But why would the owner pay anything out of pocket when he pays insurance to cover these types of things? When you get in a car accident and it is your fault.....do you tell them not to bother insurance.....you will pay thousands out of your pocket and take it as a lesson to yourself to drive better......or would you suggest use the insurance that you pay thousands for annually?Before this escalated, the OP should have stepped up and communicated with the manager/owner to see if they would be willing to compensate. We don't work for restoration anymore in this culture, it's easier to make a fuss and place blame on someone. By gum, we want justice regardless of the cost.
Again, the injury in question may be a lesson for OP.

If you own a home and a stranger falls in front of the gate and gets a 2k medical bill.....Would you agree to pay for it out of your savings.......or would you let the insurance work it out since this is the very reason you are forced to carry it?Are they refusing to pay the bill? I would think that you should be able to talk to them about it before resorting to a law suit.

I wouldnt even waste time in those matters.....I would pay someone else 1/3rd to handle it all for me (which of course is paid through the settlement). The only issue would be that the lawyer will want to get tens of thousands and not just the bills paid.....here in lies the spiritual dilemma.....is it ok/right to take more than what is absolutely necessary for billing expenses.Well then has the OP talked to them about if their insurance will pay or not?

I see nothing wrong with what you are saying.......Do you/would you, take care of car accidents out of pocket, ignoring insurance, because you are a christian?Ok, I guess I have it all wrong. Let's just keep it legal and allow the insurance co. and courts decide it. Heaven know, as Christians, we don't need to actually think beyond that.
