A: When there is insurance and a government entity involved in a crash, you should get the representation by a qualified attorney in your area. There are notices and procedures to follow. While insurance companies and government entities should step up to do the right thing for victims, there are often delays and other issues that arise. Most personal injury attorneys will provide a free consultation. The insurance companies and government entities pay more attention when an attorney to leading the front to get the victim compensated for medical bills and other damages. Good luck.
