Uninsured Motorist Claims Attorney with offices in Miami FL and Naples Fl

Uninsured Motorist Claims

Florida state law requires that every driver on the road carry motor vehicle insurance. Unfortunately, many drivers fail to carry any insurance at all, despite the law. And some drivers that do carry insurance do not have enough to adequately compensate victims that are seriously hurt in an automobile accident.

It’s for this reason that one of the most important types of automobile insurance coverage available in Florida is uninsured motorist coverage. This coverage protects you in the event someone driving a vehicle that does not have insurance or enough coverage to pay for your injuries hurts you.

The attorneys at Weinstein & Cohen are very experienced in handling uninsured and underinsured motorist cases. Often times our attorneys can help you obtain eligibility for uninsured motorist coverage even though your policy does not contain this coverage. We know how to determine the available limits by insisting on proper disclosures by insurance companies and how to accurately preserve your uninsured motorist claim.

A little known fact is that settling a claim against an at-fault driver for a policy limit may impair your ability to pursue available uninsured motorist coverage. That is why it is important to take the proper steps before settling any claims so that the uninsured motorist claim is properly preserved. Because of our attorney’s experience in handling these types of cases, we understand the nuance needed to obtain the maximum compensation allowed.
