Answer 2

no need to hire a lawyer. People demand policy limits EVERY DAY from insurance companies. No matter how minor the injury that is what they always demand- Its not unusual. Unless they really deserve it.. they wont get it.

Insurance companies have tons of lawyers working for them and for you.

Try to sit back and relax.. i know its hard to do right now.. and know this happens daily... the odds of them not being to settle within your limits (and well less) are very slim.

Answer 5

Not your problem-- let the insurance company handle it-- you do nothing. Don't talk to the other people.

Answer 6

LET THE INSURANCE HANDLE IT, MOST LIKELY THEY WILL OFFER A LOW-BALL FIGURE AND THE OTHER PARTY WILL BITE.

TYPICAL AMBULANCE CHASER.
