Phoenix’s Premier Uninsured Motorist Attorney: Pursuing Justice with Compassion and Accountability

Understanding Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Uninsured motorist coverage is designed to protect drivers and passengers when the accident-causing driver does not have liability coverage. We can assist in ensuring your claim doesn’t get denied or downplayed by the insurance company.
Underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage serves to protect drivers and passengers when the driver who caused the accident has insufficient insurance to cover the extent of the injuries. This coverage pairs with the existing policy to handle the injuries up to the policy’s limit.
How We Facilitate Maximizing Your Financial Recovery
Navigating the process of obtaining these benefits can be complicated. We assist those involved in car accidents in gathering the necessary coverage to handle medical bills. Our attorneys will review your situation and all possible policies. Where gaps exist, we find the appropriate coverage to fill them and fight for your maximum compensation.
Should the insurance companies resist giving you what you deserve, we will manage the process of proving liability and securing those benefits.

SHOULD I PROVIDE A STATEMENT TO THE OTHER DRIVER'S INSURANCE COMPANY?
You’ve just been involved in an auto accident and the other driver’s insurance company wants to take your statement. The insurance adjuster may want to record your statement over the telephone, or may want to meet with you in person to do a simple interview.
The recorded statement is crucial in your personal injury claim, as the insurance company may use it in deciding who is at fault for the collision. The insurance adjuster may also try to pin you down as to your injuries in a statement taken within days of the collision before you have returned to all of your daily activities or even had a chance to see your doctor.
If you have concerns about meeting with an insurance adjuster to give a statement, you should call an experienced Arizona personal injury attorney who can advise you regarding your rights and obligations. If you retain the attorney to represent you, he or she can be present during the statement to make sure you do not say anything that might hinder or impair your claim.

WILL HIRING A PERSONAL INJURY ATTOENEY GET ME COMPENSATED FOR MY WAGE-LOSS?
The financial toll of lost wages after an injury can be devastating. Even while laid up from an injury, you still have to pay for housing, food, and your other monthly expenses. Then the medical bills start coming in. How will you pay for it all?
Fortunately, when you’ve been injured by the negligence of another person or a company, you have a right to be reimbursed for the income you lose while you recover.
You can include your lost wages in a claim against the at-fault party, the at-fault party’s insurance company, or your own insurance company if you’re in a car accident in a no-fault state.
