Your own underinsured / uninsured (UM) policy is designed to pay to you, the policy holder, if an uninsured or underinsured person is at fault and causes injury to you but that's only if the other driver was at fault and you were injured.

Yes. The attorney works for you and your interests such as personal property, medical expenses, lost wages and settlements for pain and suffering. The insurance company, either yours or theirs, works for the insurance company and will give you only the minimum required by law based on a scale which computes market value of personal property, exact costs of medical expenses, exact lost wages from time off of work due to injury and as close to zero that they can legally come to in settling pain and suffering compensation.
