A: It sounds like you're dealing with a car accident where the other party is at fault, and you want to ensure your statement is properly submitted to your insurance company. If the police report already supports your claim and there were no injuries involved, this should simplify the process. You may want to gather all relevant information, such as the police report, any photos of the scene, and witness statements, to strengthen your case when you speak to your insurance.

You don’t necessarily need a lawyer to submit your statement to the insurance, but it can be helpful to have legal guidance to ensure everything is handled correctly. Make sure your statement includes clear details of the accident, your perspective on what happened, and any relevant evidence that supports your claim.

It’s also a good idea to follow up with your insurance company after submitting the statement to confirm they've received it and are processing it. Stay in communication with your insurer to address any questions or additional information they may need.

A: If there are no injuries, and the police report shows the other side to be at fault, it sounds like something you could handle on your own. The decision is yours to make - you could reach out to attorneys and ask about what it would cost. That might help in your decision-making process. Good luck
