Uninsured And Underinsured Motorist Claims

With more than five decades of experience, we are able to evaluate and clearly explain your uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage. Because Florida laws at this time do not require drivers to have liability insurance coverage, it is important to purchase your own uninsured and underinsured motorist policy.

  • Uninsured motorist coverage: When a negligent driver does not have insurance or sufficient assets to compensate you for the damages caused by your accident, you may pursue an uninsured motorist claim under your own insurance policy. You can receive monetary benefits up to the uninsured motorist policy limits without the penalty of increase insurance premiums. The severity of your injuries dictates whether or not your claim warrants a recovery for uninsured motorist policy limits.
  • Underinsured motorist coverage: When the coverage provided by the negligent driver’s insurance policy is not sufficient to compensate you for the full extent of damages, you may pursue additional damages under your own underinsured motorist policy. However, you are usually only entitled to file an underinsured motorist claim once the negligent party’s insurance coverage is exhausted.

Uninsured and underinsured motorist policies offer the option for stacking coverage or non-stacking coverage. Stacking coverage allows individuals with coverage on more than one vehicle to maximize coverage by seeking compensation under the coverage for both vehicles following a car accident. We put our knowledge, proficiency, and commitment to work on recovering all of the money you are entitled to from your own uninsured or underinsured motorist insurance.
