Re: Car Insurance Accident
Are you represented by a lawyer? You should be. It sounds like they are trying to settle the matter as quickly as possible.
You should contact a lawyer and discuss the matter ASAP.

Not necessarily. They want to evaluate extent of your injuries and if you had any prior injuries. If you need representation, feel free to call us at 213.388.7070.
Re: Car Insurance Accident
It is more likely they are looking for ways to limit their liability. My recommendation to you is to not release anything until you talk to a lawyer and have him review your medical records. They do not have an automatic right to review your confidential medical records. Normally, a lawyer would only give them the medical records related to the injury. If they want more than that, they would have to show how a medical record from an unrelated incident is relevant to this injury.
Re: Car Insurance Accident
Don't sign any releases until treatment is complete and your condition is known, and until you are satisfied with the amount of the settleement. Go to MWRothInjuryLaw.com and download my free special report, Secrets Insurance Companies Don't Want You to Know.

See a local personal injury lawyer ASAP and do not sign anything or have further discussions without representation.
