yes. If a lawsuit has been filed, you can request the insurance information in discovery. If no lawsuit has been filed, sometime the court will permit a person to conduct "pre-complaint" discovery. In this case, the homeowner generally would be expected to place the insurer on notice of the accident. Sometimes that doesn't happen and you can do to that once you learn the insurer's identity. I handle these types of matters regularly. Please call me at 513-381-9216.
