Alexandra B asked:
I’ve been involved in an accident and the other person agreed to reimburse the entire expenses. I know the person before the accident happened. I called the insurance agent to withdraw the claim and the insurance agent is saying that it is not possible to withdraw a claim once it is filed. Is that true?

In most cases, yes it is not possible to withdraw it. And also, it can affect your premium cost eventually.
Yes, you can. But it maybe a bad idea if you pay and then the body shop finds more damage, which often happens and you can not afford to pay more money. Once you pay out of your pocket your insuance company will no longer help you.
Alexandra B, For car insurance the quickest way to get a low quote is do a auto policy comparison. Be sure to choose the same coverage levels, you can get an accurate quote to compare against others. Use the same coverage area, car make/model, mileage and driving history to ensure you get an apples to apples comparison. To get fast auto quotes, go to and you can compare the major auto insurance companies.
