Uninsured / Underinsured Motorists
San Francisco Bay Area Car Accident Claim Attorneys
Paying insurance premiums can be a burden. However, when an accident happens and injuries result, we rely on our insurance plans to help us when we need them most. But, what happens when the person responsible for your accident has inadequate insurance or no insurance at all? Are you out of luck? Thankfully, no.
Under California law, all auto insurance policies must contain a provision that addresses such circumstances. This is referred to as uninsured motorist insurance or underinsured motorist coverage. Simply put, these provisions are designed to cover you if you are injured and the responsible party lacks sufficient insurance. It sounds simple, but it's not always that easy.
