Re: due diligence

When filing a personal injury suit, the person who injured you is the party you sue, not the insurance company. Most personal injury attorneys take these cases on a contingency, which means that you pay nothing unless there is a recovery; in which case, the attorney will take a percentage of what is recovered. Get an attorney ASAP. There are attorneys listed in the phone book or call your county bar association.
