Tamarac Underinsured Motorist Accident

Drivers who carry inadequate car insurance or no car insurance put themselves and others on the road at risk. If you are involved in a car accident in Tamarac or Florida with this type of driver, it can be even more difficult for you to recover compensation for your injuries, damages, and losses.

If you have been in this type of situation, though, you may still have options. If the other driver had some insurance, you may be able to seek maximum insurance benefits through their insurance policy. Your own policy may also have uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. In addition, in some cases you may have the option of pursuing a legal claim against any liable parties in your case. To find out what your options are, feel free to contact Flaxman Law Group at any time to arrange for a free, confidential case consultation. A consultation with our full-service law firm always comes with no obligation and gives you a chance to explore your options in depth.

There are many situations where a motorist may be underinsured or uninsured:

• A motorist may allow their coverage to lapse or may do something to disqualify them from coverage inadvertently
• A motorist may willfully refuse to get car insurance
• A motorist may not qualify for car insurance
• A person may be in a hit-and-run accident, meaning that they do not have any information about the other drivers’ insurance policy

Whether lack of insurance coverage is intentional or not, it can cause serious problems for victims who have been injured in a traffic accident.

In car accident cases involving underinsured or uninsured drivers, victims may have a hard time seeking full compensation for their injuries and losses. These injured parties may face considerable bills, including:

• Medical bills
• Surgical costs
• Lost income
• Incidental expenses
• Medication
• Car replacement or car repair bills
• Physical therapy, rehabilitation, counseling, and other long-term treatments
• At-home or nursing care costs

These costs can end up costing tens of thousands of dollars, hundreds of thousands of dollars or even more. Someone who has been seriously or permanently injured may end up requiring in excess of one million dollars in order to replace lost income, pay for medical and care costs, and take care of other expenses.

Unfortunately, very few motorists have coverage that will cover all of these costs. In these situations, it is important to consult with a personal injury attorney in order to explore all options for legal redress and for seeking fair compensation. Without legal help, patients may find themselves facing all of these costs by themselves.
