Being involved in an automobile accident is frustrating and tiresome in even the best circumstances. However, when you find out the party responsible for causing your accident is either uninsured or underinsured, you are faced with a whole new set of complications. It is common to have many questions, such as: How does the at-fault driver not having insurance or being uninsured affect me receiving the compensation I am owed? What other options do I have to recover the damages I am due? At Banafshe Law Firm, PC, our uninsured and underinsured accident attorneys are well-versed in addressing these types of concerns and helping our clients receive the money they are owed. If you have been involved in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured at fault party, have one of our attorneys review your insurance policy during your free consultation. During this consultation an auto accident attorney at Banafshe Law Firm, PC may also be able to locate another responsible party that has insurance.
In order to recover the damages you are owed in cases where the at-fault driver is either uninsured or underinsured, you must look at several different options.
Your Own Automobile Insurance Policy: Many insured automobile drivers in California aren’t aware that their own insurance policy contains provisions to cover accidents caused by uninsured and underinsured motorists. If your policy contains uninsured motorist (UM) coverage or underinsured (UIM) coverage, you can pursue compensation from your own automobile insurance carrier. There is also a possibility you can recover medical expenses and the income you lost due to the accident through your own medical payment coverage (Med Pay) or personal injury protection (PIP) coverage.
File a Lawsuit: In order to recover the monies you are owed, you may be able to file a lawsuit against the uninsured or underinsured driver. During the lawsuit we may be able to find other responsible parties such as a employers, agents, a governmental entity, registered owners, household members, rideshare companies such as Uber and Lyft, or delivery companies. Since our representation includes a no fee unless we win guarantee, our clients have no out of pocket risk as a result of filing a lawsuit to locate other insurance or responsible parties.
