Legal Question in Insurance Law in Nebraska
A Question No Attorney Will Answer
If I'm involved in a motor vehicle accident and hire an attorney to represent me, can the insurance company contact me after the attorney has notified them that I'm his/her client?
If they do contact me, what recourse do I or my attorney have against them?
Is there a law or rule that specifically states the insurance company cannot contact me once I've turned my claim over to an attorney? If so what and where is it?

Re: A Question No Attorney Will Answer
Have your attorney review your state's Fair Claims Settlement Regulations. How insurers are to handle claims is set forth there. If your lawyer files a designation with the insurer, I doubt if any communications will be directed to you. It can be an unfair claims practice to do so.
