Why do I need an attorney if I know there is "clear liability" on the other party's part?
you probably don't
some people are worried they'll be taken advantage of by the adjuster (which does happen). my ex tried to handle a claim herself and the adjuster told her that when she accepted the settlement (less than medicals. no chiro and legit doctors and PT), THEN he would pay for the meds (a lie)
other people have no idea to make their case valuable. again, i told you what to attack: chiropractors. those are the engine that make PI valuable, b/c most of these cases do not involve major injuries. these firms make major money churning out small cases constantly and not big licks. those cases are rare...fruitful, but rare. you can't keep a PI firm going on waiting for death cases

Are you seriously arguing that only lawyers know what liability means? Don't flatter yourself.
In the example you gave about your wife, under loser pays the adjuster would have an additional incentive to pay the claim fairly. If he isn't fair and the claiming party sues and wins, his company would not only be on the hook for the judgement but would also be responsible for a portion of the other party's now grossly inflated (according to you) attorney's fees.
