The injured sued me and the insurance company. Do I need a lawyer?

Legal analysis: 1. If you don't understand, if you want to hire a lawyer, in general, you can hire an insurance company lawyer instead of a separate lawyer. Because it costs more to hire a lawyer alone, and it will be much cheaper to hire an insurance company lawyer to represent you at the same time.

2. If you can speak for yourself, you can speak in court after consulting the lawyer of the insurance company, so that the cost can be much cheaper and your legitimate rights and interests can be safeguarded.

3. If the settlement is reached through consultation, additional compensation may be made. If there is a judgment, the judge will make a judgment according to law and there will be no additional compensation.
