Taking advice from an insurance company is questionable, to say the least. There are time limits that each state has, for filing suit. Therefore, waiting on an insurance company to give you permission to act may not be in your best interest.
You should consider consulting with a local personal injury attorney because a local attorney can gather the necessary facts and assess damages. Most personal injury attorneys offer a free initial consultations, and can help you determine the best course of action going forward.
