Should I speak with the negligent party’s insurance company, as they keep calling me?
It is generally not recommended to speak with the negligent party's insurance company without first consulting with a personal injury attorney. Insurance companies are primarily concerned with protecting their own interests, and may try to pressure you into accepting a low settlement offer or making statements that could be used against you later on.
Instead, it is recommended that you refer the insurance company to your personal injury attorney. Your attorney can communicate with the insurance company on your behalf and help protect your legal rights throughout the claims process. They can also negotiate with the insurance company to help ensure that you receive fair compensation for your injuries and other damages.
If you do choose to speak with the insurance company on your own, be cautious about what you say and do not agree to anything until you have had the opportunity to speak with a personal injury attorney. It is important to remember that insurance companies are not on your side and may use anything you say to minimize or deny your claim.
