For Nissan/Infiniti specifically, EDRs are only in 2013+ models. Complete list here:

Edit: to answer your first question, your insurance company would likely need a court order. Second question, you have access to it yourself, it's your car so you "own" the data. (It'd be like you had a deleted text message on your cell phone that could help you in some way, you have every right to take your own phone to some expert or company to try to retrieve the data)
