Stay away from a lawyer as long as possible.
worst advice ever. After my last accident my lawyer is the 2nd call I make after I call 911.
Insurance company was trying to screw me over essentially 3 grand. Hired Laxguy59 and his team, I didn't have to do anything else and they settled for 17 grand. Calling a lawyer was the best move I have ever made when it came to auto insurance.
