Philip Wesley Lorenz 5 stars 8 reviews Rating: 10 Car Accident Lawyers in Marietta, GA Reveal number tel: (404) 800-5297 Private message Call Message Profile Posted on Dec 4, 2014 Not quite sure what you are asking about handling through insurance company - property damage to your Sonoma or a potential personal injury claim. If property damage only, then yes you can usually handle those yourself, but with a 94 your insurer may ant to total your vehicle rather than try to repair it. If personal injury and your knee hurts, see a doctor sooner rather than later. Was there a citation issued for the accident? To who? Lots of unanswered questions, so consulting with a local personal injury attorney who offers free consultations is step in the right direction regardless of what you choose to do. Good luck.

Do NOT talk to the insurer at all. If you do have a case, you'll get a far smaller settlement on your own than with counsel. If you find this answer helpful, please mark it here on as helpful.

Lars A. Lundeen 5 stars 5 reviews Rating: 9.3 Personal Injury Lawyer in Cuttingsville, VT Reveal number tel: (802) 492-3818 Private message Call Message Profile Posted on Dec 4, 2014 You should obtain needed medical care and treatment immediately and follow the doctor's advice. Do not give any statement to the adverse party or insurance company nor grant them access to any medical records. Photograph the injuries and the damage done to any property. Contact a personal injury attorney in your area as soon as possible so that you can protect your rights.

David Mann Not yet reviewed Rating: 8.1 Car Accident Lawyers in Macon, GA Reveal number tel: (478) 796-8198 Private message Call Message Profile Posted on Dec 5, 2014 I agree with the answer of others, that you need to have a medical evaluation done. Very often the harm done by an impact isn’t felt immediately. This is why we caution people not to accept a quick settlement or to sign anything right away. Most people don’t have a lot of experience dealing with insurance adjusters, but personal injury lawyers do it all the time. I’d advise you to call a local attorney who offers a free initial consultation, take your medical records and the police report and find out whether legal representation can help you get a better outcome than going it alone.
