Do I need an attorney if the other driver may not have insurance to cover my car damages? While it was raining, I was sitting at a red light. The driver in the lane next to me skidded while approaching the light and hit me on the passenger side. No police report was filed as there were no injuries. My insurance is claiming my car is a total loss while hers finally contacted me this morning stating they are investigating her eligibility as she may have been cancelled prior to the accident. I did go to the hospital later that night for my neck, no damage, just some pills for pain. Should I get a lawyer at this point?

A: If the other drive had no insurance turn it in on your own insurance and yes you probably need a lawyer’s help.
