Helping Clients File Uninsured Motorist Insurance Claims

California requires all drivers to carry a certain amount of auto insurance to cover the losses of accident victims if the driver crashes. Unfortunately, not all drivers comply with the law, as some drivers may not be insured. Learning that a driver doesn’t have coverage can be concerning and frustrating, especially when you know you will face losses due to property damage and injuries. That is when you should call a Beverly Hills uninsured motorist accident attorney.

How Uninsured Motorist Claims Work

California requires auto insurance companies to offer policyholders uninsured motorist coverage, also known as UMC. This coverage provides benefits when an at-fault driver does not have the required coverage. Accident victims should not suffer unnecessary financial consequences just because another driver violated the law.

With the help of a Los Angeles uninsured motorist accident attorney, you will file the claim with your own insurer, even though you were not to blame. Many people expect the insurance process to be easier if it involves their insurance company. After all, you pay the premiums, so you should receive benefits easily, right? Believe us when we say your insurance company can be just as difficult and will often try to deny coverage or settle your claim for less than you deserve after your accident.

A closely related scenario is underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage. This is typically included with an uninsured motorist (UM) policy. If the other driver carries only the minimal bodily injury coverage required by law, but your losses exceed their policy limits, you could bring a claim under your own underinsured motorist policy to cover the difference. We regularly handle both UM and UIM claims in auto accidents.
