[2] Please forward this letter to your liability insurance company so that the adjuster handling this matter may be in contact with me as soon as possible. In the event that you do not have liability insurance to cover this accident, contact me immediately to discuss your intentions in this matter. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. /s/ Gia Nicole Eubanks (emphasis added). In Reaves, the letter sent to the Superintendent by Reaves's attorney provided: I have been retained by Rebecca Lou Rouse to represent her daughter, Ashley Renee Reaves, with regard to injuries and damages arising and growing out of a bicycle/motor vehicle accident which occurred on 2/18/96 at approximately 1:30 p.m. on the grounds of Davis School. It would be greatly appreciated if you would have your insurance carrier contact me regarding adjustment of this claim. /s/ Preston Davis Rideout, Jr. Id.
