Well, I talked to the adjuster and her supervisor, they both say the 20% is what they believe would be the taxes I would pay on the amount of wages loss I claimed. Apparently they are not responsible for paying me the tax portion of my gross wages. They are sending me a copy of their company policy on this issue, and a letter stating that this is a common practice of USAA's for 20 years.
Letter should be here Tuesday, between now and then there is more to deal with, and some extensive reading and study to do in connection with bodily injury. That or just hand it over to a lawyer.
*Note: As our onversation ended she said she was going to make me her final offer which was $2,700.00 more than the one the day before.

Maybe you can get more (maybe a lot more) if you do hire a lawyer. Just a thought.

When you roll the dice it ain't always a smart move.

Well let's see...hmm...it maybe 20% that the employer pays on your behalf for FICA etc. Is the amount you're getting close to what your net paychek is after FICA witholdings?
Crude example: Gross pay is $1,000 a week. After FICA witholdings your actual paycheck is $800. Since the insurance payment is not subject to FICA they figure you are "whole" at $800....your take home is the same as if you had worked.
Just a guess and maybe way off base. At any rate, good luck!
