Before you cash that check, consult an attorney in your area. The attorney, after reviewing your case, can determine if the insurance company is offering you a reasonable amount. You can also decide whether or not you want to pursue a lawsuit. Keep in mind that insurance companies try to settle for the least amount of money. However, if you are satisfied with the $2000, then you can accept the check and give up your right to sue.
