MANCHESTER, NH, December 28, 2012 (Press-News.org) With the exception of New Hampshire, drivers are required by law to carry insurance in every state in the US. Yet the Insurance Research Council estimates that one out of every seven drivers is uninsured or underinsured. Worse still, some studies have found that as many as 50 percent of all car accidents are caused by uninsured or underinsured drivers.
When you are involved in a car accident caused by an uninsured or underinsured driver, it can be incredibly difficult to get the compensation you will require to recover. If you have opted for uninsured driver coverage on your own insurance policy, you may be able to eek a paltry settlement from your coverage. However, to ensure you are treated fairly and provided the full compensation you require, you will need a car accident lawyer on your side.
How a Car Accident Lawyer can Help
Insurance companies are in the business of making money. To do this, they have to cheat even their own policy holders out of fair settlements. Insurance policies are intentionally complex. Knowing that you may not understand all that you are entitled to under your policy, your insurance company may withhold information or use various tricks to keep you from filing an uninsured/underinsured claim. Your car accident lawyer will protect you against these tricks. Working with you on an individual basis and helping you understand all that you are entitled to your lawyer can fight for your rights and help ensure you are provided every penny you are owed.
Victims of car accidents deserve justice. You should not be denied justice simply because the liable party was not responsible enough to carry insurance. An experienced can accident lawyer can assess your case, review your options, and fight for the compensation you deserve.
If you have been injured in an accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver, please visit the website of the Manchester, New Hampshire car accident lawyers at the Law Offices of Van Dorn & Curtiss for more information on your rights.
