The insurance company wants me to sign a form authorizing them to get my medical records. Should I sign it?

 

A: No.

The insurance company does not want to get your records to pay your fair compensation for your injuries.  If that was the case, they would just ask you for your bills and a report from your doctor.  Instead, they want to dig through your past looking for anything they can do to pressure or embarrass you into taking less money than your case is worth.  They will get records that have nothing to do with your accident, including gynecological records, counseling records, urology and proctology records, even labor and delivery records.  You have a right to privacy, and shouldn't give it up just because some careless driver crashed into you.
