Independent Passenger Consultation Checklist

Gather both drivers' information and identify the vehicle owner if different from the driver.
List potentially applicable auto and health policies, including household policies that may need review.
Note all known injured occupants without guessing about their diagnoses or claim values.
Bring coverage denials, exhaustion letters, proposed releases, and reimbursement notices.
Tell the attorney whether your driver or another passenger is already represented by that attorney or firm.
Ask who would be represented and how any competing claims to limited insurance would be addressed.
Bring your bill tracker and mark entries that have collection notices or unresolved denials.
Ask which notice, benefit-submission, and lawsuit deadlines need to be checked for your situation.
