Uninsured & Underinsured Motorists

UNINSURED AND UNDERINSURED MOTORIST CLAIM LAWYERS

Suffering a serious injury in a car, truck, pedestrian or other motor vehicle accident is hard enough without facing a battle with the insurance companies to get the compensation you deserve. One of the more complicated areas of insurance law arises when a negligent motorist injures another person and the negligent driver lacks sufficient insurance. Personal injury compensation is typically pursued through the at-fault party’s insurance company. Many California drivers have minimal coverage or fail to maintain any insurance at all.

What is an injured person supposed to do when an at-fault driver doesn’t have insurance? How does he or she recover the compensation necessary to handle medical care, lost income and property losses?

Answers To Complex Questions In Personal Injury And Insurance Claims

While recovering compensation through the at-fault party’s insurance is ideal, it is not always possible. He or she may have limited coverage that stops at just a few thousand dollars or no insurance at all. An uninsured or underinsured motorist leaves you without the resources to cover your medical bills, let alone the long-term financial consequences you may face because of temporary or permanent employment limitations.

Unless you have expressly declined uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage in writing, your best option may be to seek UM/UIM benefits under your own insurance. It is not always easy to recover the full amount an injured person deserves, even though these claims are brought against one’s own insurance provider. No matter how reliably you paid your premiums over the years, your insurance company will still want to minimize the amount of money paid in your claim. We are here to level the playing field against the power of the insurance company.
