In law there are no second opinions like you get in medicine. You should ask your lawyer all these questions and he should be able to answer you and tell you what exactly is the status of your case.

Having said that--generally, in multiple rear-end accidents, it would be prudent to bring a suit against all involved and not just one. The fact of the matter is, in my opinion, all the cars that have ended up rear-ending one another were following too closely--this is specially true if you have felt two impacts.

What I just said is a generality. I am not familiar with the details of your case and as you know the devil is in the details. Ask your attorney for a detail status on your case and write down all your questions before hand and ask them--keep asking for clarification until you understand exactly what your attorney has done, is doing and plans on doing in the future.

I hope this helps-

Since you have a lawyer, who should have conducted an investigation, he or she is in the best position to answer your questions. He or she should know how badly you are injured, what the insurance coverages are and the pluses and minuses of your case.

Having said that, based on the facts that you relayed in your posting and if settlement negotiations have broken down or the two year statute of limitations is about to occur, it would be prudent to bring a suit against all involved.

Ask your attorney for what he or she plans to do and why? Confirm that he has contacted all possible parties and is aware of the extent of your injuries and the insurance coverages.

Good luck.
