Is The Person Who Caused My Injury Involved In The Defense Of My Personal Injury Lawsuit?

Quick answer

Is the person who injured you involved in defending the lawsuit? On liability, yes, says Pierce County, Washington attorney Spencer Freeman—they're a key fact-witness to what actually happened. But when it comes to valuing the case and making settlement decisions, that's driven by the insurance company, not the at-fault individual. The insurer runs the strategy.
