text: You should contact a lawyer.  $600 is totally unreasonable.  I would say that $2500 is the absolute minimum that you should consider.  You have bills for towing, buying a new car, lost work, and medical expenses.  Contacting a lawyer will show that you mean business and maybe will get you a better deal.  If not, I would definitely consider legal action to recover at least your expenses (not including any pain and suffering) incurred as a result of this accident.
