Wappingers Falls Underinsured Motorist Accident Attorney
Okay, you were involved in a car accident with an uninsured motorist. Or perhaps the guy who hit your car didn't stick around long enough to exchange insurance information. It's a common problem. The American Insurance Institute reports that up to 25 percent of drivers in the U.S. are uninsured or underinsured. Now what do you do?
You may have options for recovering compensation for property damage and personal injury, even if the other driver didn't carry the legally-required amount of auto insurance. If you carry an uninsured motorist insurance (UIM) rider on your policy, you can file a claim against your own insurance. But don't expect your insurance adjuster to be fair. The truth is, when you file against your own policy, you will be considered a 'hostile claimant' just as if you were filing against another insurance company. You see, insurance companies don't like paying fair claims to their own customers any more than they do other drivers.
