An insurance agent for the at-fault driver called me the other day and wanted to ask a bunch of questions. Is it okay to talk to the agent?

Under no circumstances should you talk to an insurance agent for the at-fault party in a car accident. Direct them to speak to your attorney. Do not sign anything. Do not agree to have your statement recorded.

Always remember that insurance adjusters are trained to ask questions that may assist them to dismiss, diminish, or deny your claim. If you provide them with a statement while you were still in shock, anything and everything you say may be twisted and used against you later in an attempt to deny your claim, no matter how valid it may be.
