Legal Question in Insurance Law in Pennsylvania

Still Represented?

Hi,My girlfriend was involved in an accident which was not her fault about one year ago.Although neither her car or the vehicle that struck her were damaged more than a scrape,the people in the other car are now claiming all sorts of injuries(they have claimed them for some time).We met with the attorney for the Insurance company who sees no problem because the people have no receipts,etc.The problem is that my girlfriend moved recently and her mail did not follow in a timely fashion so she has since been dropped by the insurance carrier (for not filling out a questionaire form,not for non-payment of premium).My big question and what is upsetting us both is this:Will the Insurance Company still represent her(Her policy was paid up and up to date during the time of the accident and has been up until today when she received the notice that she had been dropped).I thought Yes,as did she,but we need more reassurance then our thinking that we are right.Any help with this would be appreciated and take a load off of our minds.In case it is relevant,she lives in Philadelphia,Pa.and did so during the time of the accident as well.Thank you.

Re: Still Represented?

Representation should be based on having insurance coverage at the time of the accident, regardless whether one stays with that particular insurance company later. Make sure the attorney retained by the insurance company has current contact information.
