The moment you have been injured and contact any insurance company, you begin making decisions that may affect your rights and potential recovery. Don't make any assumptions (my insurance company is on my side) or decisions without a legal consultation. Myth: My insurance company is on my side. Truth: Insurance companies are for profit. The less they pay for claims, the more profitable they are - even if it's your insurance company.
Myth: Attorneys are too expensive. I can keep more if I don't pay legal fees. Truth: Attorney's fees are on a contingency basis from any recovery. You never pay fees out of your own pocket. And, represented claimants generally stand to recover more, even after legal fees. Myth: I have health insurance, so I don't need an attorney. Truth: Most health insurance policies are entitled to claim a subrogation interest, or lien, against your third-party recovery, whether you have an attorney or not.
Experienced attorneys can reduce these claims against your recovery.

There are many types of auto insurance policies available, and there is no universal definition of "full coverage" - it doesn't really exist.
Generally, most people that think they are "fully insured" are saying they have liability, collision and comprehensive coverage.
California is an "at fault" state - the person who causes the accident is responsible for the damages.
And if another person is injured in an accident that you caused, your liability coverage will pay for that person's bodily injury claim.
