Automobile Insurance
It is important for all California drivers to carry automobile insurance and make sure your policy includes coverage for uninsured/underinsured motorist. Recently, California Highway Patrol statistics showed nearly 25% of all motor vehicles driving on California’s roads and highways do not have insurance. You can learn more about Uninsured Motorist and Underinsured Motorist coverage, or see our article “Are You Confused About Uninsured Motorist Insurance vs. Underinsured Motorist Insurance in California.”
Liability insurance will cover your damages as well as your passengers. It will also cover any damages to the other party if the accident was your fault. However, if the accident was not your fault and the other party does not have enough insurance to cover your damages (underinsured), or worse has no coverage at all (uninsured), your uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage will pick up the costs with limitations.
If you have been involved in an automobile accident in California, you may be able to file a claim against the negligent driver to recover all of your damages including property damage, medical costs, personal suffering, future losses and, in some cases, punitive damages. Never proceed with a negligence claim without first obtaining legal advice. An attorney experienced in the practice of personal injury law knows the court system, can cut through insurance company red tape, and will make sure you are justly compensated for all current and future damages. here.
