Question

I was stopped for a light out on my vehicle, when the officer ran my registration it came up uninsured and registration revoked. I explained to him that I had switched insurances a few weeks prior but he stated that he had to go by what was in the system and he had my car towed. The next day I contacted the insurance who stated that it was their error and would pay for the towing. I have to go to court for the citation that was given to me for the unregistered/uninsured vehicle. I have a letter from the insurance company stating it was their error. This all happened after 11:00 p.m. at night on my way home from an emergency vet visit where I had to have my dog put down and actually her him in the car with me. I had to walk to a near by shopping plaza while carrying my deceased dog and wait for my daughter to pick me up. I have feel so overwhelmed with everything and want to know if I have any rights to mental anquish from the insurance company because of their negligence?



Answer

It would seem unlikely, however you could certainly retain counsel and pay your counsel by the hour to prosecute a claim on your behalf, pay the court filing fees, sheriff expenses, and expert witness testimony from a doctor and go to trial and see if you recover anything. Best luck. Regards, JBS
