When did this occur? How many cars involved? Please BRIEFLY describe the damage to each car? Any injuries? If so, please BRIEFLY describe.
What does this mean? You should have exchanged insurance information at the scene of the accident. Has a lawsuit been filed?
Who are "they"? Have "they" explained why "they" want this information?
Define "decent"?
Your insurer's responsibility is to pay damages resulting from your negligence (up to your policy limits), to provide an attorney to defend you in any lawsuit, and to use its best efforts to prevent a judgment against you in excess of policy limits. Please confirm that, within a reasonable time after the accident occurred, you reported the accident to your insurer and have spoken with an adjuster about it.
Note that you are not obligated to provide information about your assets/income until and unless a judgment has been entered against you and you are served with post judgment interrogatories or are testifying in a judgment debtor exam. That said, providing such information may be beneficial in settling and avoiding a lawsuit.
The accident 3/25/2024 was myself, rear-ending a vehicle with one person in it. She was able to get out of the car and walk around after accident. She is also claiming an injury and vehicle was damaged. I have comprehensive collision coverage. $15k/30k
We exchanged info via CHP. It then went straight to insurance. I was in contact with my insurance company that day. I spoke to an adjuster within a few days. My car was repaired by a shop, paid by my insurance.
The other party has got a lawyer. My insurance company sent me about 6-7 pages a couple weeks ago asking me to sign. My insurance company stated that the papers were from the other lawyer and was asking consent to release policy limit information.
I agreed and signed. Now my insurance company is asking me to sign another paper giving the same information about policy limits and also asking if there is any umbrella insurance, which I do not have. Another point on the paper is stating that I have no cash/assets totaling $xxx amount of money. Of which I do have. But I feel like telling them the value of my assets would not help me in this situation. It's not much, but it's more than what they are asking about.
My insurance adjuster did tell me that the injury was not considered "serious" meaning no surgery or life threatening injuries. And was not hospitalized for an extensive time.
