You are chatting with an AI. It gives general legal information, not legal advice, and can be wrong or out of date — check deadlines on the official settlement website. Please don't share Social Security numbers, account numbers or medical details.

What the AI assistant can help with
- Explain how fault and insurance work where you live: at-fault states, no-fault states and comparative fault
- Walk through what an adjuster's first offer usually leaves out, like future treatment and lost wages
- List the records that carry a claim: police report, photos, medical records, bills and proof of missed work
- Translate insurance letters: releases, reservation of rights, subrogation and medical liens
- Point you to the deadline rules for your state and the settlement ranges in public data
When to talk to a lawyer
The assistant gives general legal information. It does not represent you, and it does not decide what you should do in your own case. Talk to a lawyer if:
- You were hurt and needed medical treatment, or you are still treating
- Fault is disputed, or more than two vehicles were involved
- The insurer denied the claim, stopped responding or made an offer that does not cover your bills
- A commercial truck, rideshare or government vehicle was involved; claims against a city, county or state often require formal notice within months, not years
- You are being asked to sign a release or the filing deadline is getting close
What a lawyer costs: Most injury lawyers offer a free first consultation and work on contingency: no fee unless they recover money for you, usually around a third of the settlement, more if the case goes to trial. Ask for the fee agreement in writing, including how case costs are handled.

Questions people ask
Can AI tell me what my car accident case is worth?
It can explain what drives the value of a claim (medical bills, lost income, fault, the other driver's policy limits and your state's rules) and what similar cases paid in public data. It cannot value your specific claim. For a rough range use our car accident settlement calculator; for a real valuation, a lawyer's free consultation.
Do I have to talk to the other driver's insurance company?
Your own policy usually requires you to report the accident to your insurer. Giving a recorded statement to the other driver's insurer is generally not required, and what you say can be used to reduce the claim. Many people get advice before agreeing to one.
Is it free?
Yes. You can ask three questions a day for free, and the free case review with a lawyer costs nothing either.
Ask about something else
Settlement Insight is not a law firm, and the AI assistant is not a lawyer. Answers are general legal information based on public records and can contain mistakes. They are not legal advice for your situation. For that, talk to a lawyer licensed in your state.
