Media Personal Injury Attorney Discusses an Accident Case

Question:
If I didn’t settle on the other party’s insurance yet, can I settle with my own insurance company?
Answer:
As an experienced Media Personal Injury Attorney, I often speak to clients in regards to this matter. You should consult with an attorney before settling with any parties or insurance companies. In some instances, settlement with one party or insurance carrier may prejudice your rights against other parties. It is even possible to bar or preclude additional claims against other culpable parties and carriers simply by execution of a broad or general release with one party.
