What Options do You Have if You Have Been in a Collision With an Underinsured Motorist?

If you are a driver in Florida, you are likely covered by car insurance. If you are, you may also have underinsured or uninsured coverage.

In these situations, this policy will kick in to ensure that your medical costs and other expenses are covered.
