Question : I have been sued by an insurance company but my insurance co will not show up for court what do i do?
I have made two court dates and the insurance co American Freedom Insurance (Illinois) has not shown for the neither court date I have notified them in writing fax and phone. I have a letter of coverage notice from them from an accident two years ago when state property was damaged as result of the accident they paid the claim and also paid for my car which was totaled. I have not reached my maximum coverage eiher. Now a person involved in the accident insurance company has filed suit against me and another driver we are both listed on the summons by the way he has not showed up for court one time neither has his insurance company. I have been to court twice and have a nother date next week. They have not responded and i believe their intention is not to respond. What should do they are suing for $ 12,000. If my insurance company never show up will i bestuck with a judgment HELP!!!!!

Well, this isn’t about them DEFENDING you, they’ve already admitted you’re fully at fault! There isn’t any point in sending a lawyer, the judge is going to find against you.
You just will need to present the judgement to them for payment, assuming that your policy limits have not been exhausted. They don’t need to have a representative there, they’ll be paying the judgement ANYWAY.
Unless you’re contending you are NOT at fault for the accident, that someone ELSE is? But if that were the case, your company wouldn’t have paid the damaged state property – so they are agreeing already that you’re at fault.

Call the company and ask them if they are going to show up for court. They may not need to be there for some reason but if you don’t call them you won’t find out. If they say that they need to be there ask why they haven’t shown up. Maybe they never got a copy of the letter with the court dates.
