Generally you will be required to waive all future claims against them for that incident. Sometimes they want to do that because they think there will be future claims and sometimes it is simple economics. Trials are expensive and juries are not the friends of insurance companies.

He did not settle, he and his people wanted it to go to court but his insurance carrier felt he should focus on promoting his recently released album and upcoming world tour which had million dollar sponsorship deals on the line if he cancelled. So they went over the heads of Michael and his reps and reached and paid the settlement.

Unless it is a first party claim and the agent has draft authority or the authority to settle some minor claims, ALLclaims must be reported to the claims dept. of your insurance carrier.

Can you settle auto personal claims without going to court?

Yes, and it frequently happens. When an accident happens, the injured person normally has 2 years before it has to file suit and some of this time is used to try to settle the matter before filing a lawsuit. The usual process is the person who caused the accident notifies his insurance company and gives it the details. The injured party sees a lawyer about suing. When the injured person is about done with treatment and it is known whether future medical treatment is needed, his lawyer is ready to put a dollar value on the injury. The lawyer will advise you or your lawyer of the amount of money they intend to sue for, but will offer the insurance company a chance to settle before that. The insurance company reviews the claim and the facts of the accident and injury and determines what it is willing to pay prior to suit being filed. A lawyer for the insurance company tells the other lawyer what they will pay at this time. If everyone is satisfied with the amount offered, it is accepted. Everyone signs appropriate releases, the money is paid and that is that. If the amount is unaccpetable, suit gets filed, but the negotiations starts again and the suit might be settled before the trial date.
