Car Accident Issue, They aren't leaving me alone Options

[MaskedMan]

Alright, so lately i've been stressing out a lot, and i really need help here. I was involved in a car accident about few weeks ago when i car hit me from behind pushing me into the car ahead of me. I damaged the car ahead of me a lot and the car behind me drove away and we didn't see who it was. We didn't file a report, and we agreed to handle this outside of insurance. I ended up paying $2,000 and had her sign a paper saying that i had paid her and all payments and concerns are complete. But now she is calling me, telling me that her insurance company wants to charge me for all kinds of stuff like medical and therapy and stuff. I guess she decided to go ahead and call her insurance company either way without telling me on the day of the accident. Can her or her insurance company do anything to me after i paid and she signed the paper?

1 YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE PAID HER ****!
2 YOU SHOULD HAVE FILED A REPORT!
3 YOU SHOULD HAVE CALLED YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY! (you would not have had to pay so much $$)

and i was actually going to give her the $3,000 to shut her up

nononononono! you've already given her waay too much bud.

The forms she signed should hold up. It sounds like she didn't tell her insurance company that she signed those forms! Make copies, and send them to the person assigned to this claim for her insurance. Then, tell her to piss off. Also, it sounds like she's just trying to get more $$ out of you, threatening you with her insurance company. If the documents are completed, and everything is settled, then she needs some kind of paperwork that says why she would need $3K more. That just sounds really shady!

**edit**
Good call on the paper you had her sign! I would not even of thought of that!
