Although state law does require drivers to purchase liability insurance for property damage, there is no such requirement for personal injury coverage. Similarly, many drivers choose to purchase the lowest amount of coverage permitted by law. These uninsured or underinsured motorists are also unable to bear the cost of a serious accident. The result is that responsible drivers are sometimes required to pay damages for an auto accident that was not their fault. We believe that car accident victims should not be financially responsible for the negligence or carelessness of other drivers. If you are involved in an auto accident where the at-fault driver is underinsured or has no insurance at all, you may be able to pursue a claim with your own insurance company. We can help you get monetary compensation for your injuries. Although your insurance company may be obligated to pay damages for your medical expenses and other financial hardships caused by an auto accident, the process is difficult. Claims are frequently delayed, underpaid, or wrongfully denied. At McElyea & Barnard P.
