My insurance company wants me to contribute personal funds to settle the claim. A lawsuit maybe file against me for the different. I thought insurance conpamies only settle with the max limits I have on my policies?

Can a personal Injury Lawyer get the info about a person’s auto policy amount after an accident?
I was in an auto accident and hired a lawyer to represent me. The insurance companies are (mine & the other motorist) are investgating in order to determine who is at fault… Meanwhile, I’m asking my attorney to see if the other motorist has full coverage, liability, etc… so I can have an idea as to how things are going to play themselves out in regards to my medical bills, and other compensation, etc… The attorney claims that he can’t get the details of the other motorist’s insurance policy to answer my questions. This doesn’t sound right to me. Shouldn’t he, not only be able to obtain their policy, but be working diligently, early on in the process, to obtain this information so he can guage the “possible” compensation that, not only myself, but the docter & himself (the lawyer) may receive? …my injury is a life altering injury and I need to know what options I have in regards to my medical & all other compensation I may be entitled to. I am not the type to blindly allow my lawyer to do as he chooses, while I remain in the dark as to the facts regarding my situation. Please enlighten me…
I have a lein on a settlement I received from a injury insurance policy from the hospital i was treated.?
I was issued 2 separate checks one in my name for 19,329 dollars that is issued to me. and another one for 30,671 dollars that is made out to me and the hospital i was treated at when I had my car accident. I was covered under a 50,000 dollar injury insurance policy and was paid out but was told by the insurance agent that I would have to negotiate with the billing dept. to see if they would take a lower payment. She said i should offer them 10000 dollars. That usually they will settle for half of the bill. I was also insured by my medical insurance and want to know if there is anything i should know before trying to negotiate with the billing dept. I was told my insurance company should have paid but because of auto insurance the hosptal goes after that first. I will be out of work for about 4 more months due to a back injury and think I should be entitled to more because of stress and pain i have been through. Can someone offer me some advice
