What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Maryland
Hi – I am hoping someone can share advice on next steps for me in dealing with the insurance company after an auto accident.
Here is what has happened already:
After the accident occurred, I felt that it was unsafe to deal with the other driver on my own because he was aggressive before the accident and I can only imagine how mad he would be after the accident. After I found a safe place to pull over – the other driver is already gone.
I called my insurance company and submitted a claim that day. A few days later, someone from the same insurance company that I use called me asking about the accident but didn’t seem to know that I already submitted claim. It turns we have the SAME company! I am waiting to hear back from my adjuster – but I am wondering if I should seek a third party lawyer since the accident involved the same insurance company? Or what I should do next?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
