(100,133 posts)We went through that with our son. The insurance company always says no at the outset, and it's up to you to keep pushing. We had a good plastic surgeon and he was in our corner, but the main effort was up to us. You just don't take no for an answer for something this important.
Strangely enough, I can see that a family that would keep pit bulls so carelessly that the dogs maimed and almost killed their toddler, would also be incapable of maintaining records of their letters and phone calls to the insurance company and doing ongoing negotiations like all the rest of us have to do.
And now they appear to have tried to solve their problem by defrauding the public. Another poster pointed out that the blue-collar workers at that KFC store had to endure hate-mail and threats of violence thanks to this charming family.
I have a feeling the family will be having an ongoing relationship with Child Protective Services if they don't already after the pit bull incident, in addition to the detectives at the police dept.
