Pembroke Pines Underinsured Motorist Accident

According to USA Today, up to 24% of Florida drivers were driving without car insurance in 2011. This does not include the much larger amount of drivers who had some insurance but not enough to really help victims who have been injured in a motor vehicle accident in Pembroke Pines or their communities. If you are involved in a car accident with one of these types of drivers, it can be especially upsetting to learn that insurance alone may not cover the full cost of your injuries.

What You can do to Prevent Underinsured Collisions in Pembroke Pines or Your Community

Being involved in a collision with an underinsured or uninsured motorist is very upsetting. There are several things that you will want to do to protect yourself from this situation:

1) If you're in a car accident, take the steps necessary to secure maximum compensation. If you are in a car accident and suspect that the other driver does not have adequate insurance, seek maximum compensation. This may mean securing as much evidence and information about your case as possible. Take photos of the accident scene and get the contact information of any witnesses. Get contact and insurance information for the other driver and report the accident at once. Before you do anything, consult with a personal injury attorney to find out what options exist for you.

2) Get underinsured and underinsured motorist coverage. One of the best ways to protect yourself and your family is to get uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage on your own car accident policy. If you are ever in a hit-and-run accident or are involved in an accident involving a motorist who does not have adequate insurance for your injuries, this type of coverage can kick in and cover your medical costs and any costs not covered by the other driver’s insurance policy.

3) Never accept any settlement or sign any documents after a collision without speaking with a personal injury attorney. Even if you have uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage or believe that your injuries are not severe, it is important to consult with a personal injury attorney for a consultation before accepting any settlement or insurance benefits. You want to make sure that the amount of money that you receive will cover the full cost of your injuries and losses. You don't want to be in a situation where your benefits run out before you're fully healed and before all your costs are compensated.
