bluetic; I disagree, I did hire a lawyer (same one I used for our wills, estate stuff etc.) by the hour in dealing with All State, (other guys Insurer), worked great for me. All State were very reluctant to deal with the "team", they started on the wrong foot with me by low balling my injuries and bike, helmet, time off work etc. but did come around to a reasonable dollar figure, in the end. I had to realize that my legs would never be my own again, and stuff would be different. But still to this day 25 years later I suffer the consequences of other drivers inattention.
And as stated above document everything, read your policy and what you are covered for, document everything, get the treatment you need, and don't rush things, document everything, did I say document everything? I used my family Doc. as a basis and stating point, asked for the referrals to Ortho, Physio's, chiro's, etc.
