As long as she is insured you've nowt to worry about.

there are not many 'real' insurers, most the companies are underwritten by just a few.

the solicitors called and said it may take a few months for the claim to pay out looking around christmas
they said if i let the insurance's sort it then they maybe just offer me £1500 or nothing at all
if i let these solicitors sort it the minimum i will get is £1500 and it will be more

do you think i should wait or get in touch with the insurance first before i sign the forms to let the solicitors take it over for me
