In the end, because you both have the same insurance company, what will most likely happen is State Farm will (of course) pay for all of the damages, although each of you will have to pay your deductibles. You will each be held 50% at fault. So if the damages are less than your deductibles, see if you can settle this on your own without the insurance company.

And no - you can't trust anybody, especially an attorney!
So basically I am going to have a knock against my insurance? Once the claim has been filed I have been told it will go against at least one if not both participants.
