What is PIP insurance?

Also known as "no-fault insurance," Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is an extension of auto insurance that covers your medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages. Though in some states PIP is mandatory, it isn't available in others. You should know that Washington State law allows a pedestrian who is injured by a motorist to recover medical and wage loss benefits under that driver's PIP coverage, regardless of who was at fault for the accident. Washington law states that as an injured pedestrian, you are entitled to the at-fault driver's no-fault PIP coverage, if it exists.

AND if i file on the other parties insurance will this anyway interfere with a law suit if i decide to get a lawyer for the other insurance co...?
