Being Injured In An Accident Caused By An Uninsured Driver Can Be Expensive.
A collision with an uninsured driver could leave you with hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills, for things like:
- Surgeries
- Hospitalization
- Copays
- Deductibles
- Physical therapy
- Chiropractic care
- Imaging tests (like MRIs)
- And more.
You may also lose thousands of dollars or more in lost wages; you may not be able to work until you heal, and you may have to use PTO or forego getting paid entirely.
The costs aren’t just monetary, however – you could lose sleep because of the pain, miss out on activities and travel plans you would otherwise have enjoyed, or require mental health counseling to deal with the trauma of the crash.
Why Do You Need To Work With Jacksonville Uninsured Driver Accident Lawyers?
In typical accident cases, where both parties have insurance, the injured party can seek compensation from the negligent party’s insurer; however, in an accident involving an uninsured driver, that isn’t an option. Most of the time in these situations, the best chance for recovering damages will lie with your own insurance company. Insurance companies aren’t primarily concerned with their own customers’ interest, though. While they may pretend to be looking out for you, their decisions are influenced most heavily by their bottom line. They lose money when they pay out full claims to customers. Therefore, they will likely do everything possible to deny or devalue your claim.
Because uninsured driver claims can be complex, if you don’t have aggressive legal representation on your side, it is unlikely that you will be able to stand up to them successfully on your own! Our skilled attorneys can explain your options, investigate the accident, gather the necessary paperwork, review your policy, communicate and negotiate with your insurer, and even take your case to trial if necessary.
