Arizona Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists Attorneys
Attorney Representation in Phoenix, Arizona Since 1996
Getting into a car accident in Phoenix is a traumatic event, but the anguish can increase tenfold if you are hit by someone without adequate, or any, auto insurance. How can you possibly recover the expenses associated with your injuries, lost property, loss of income, and pain and suffering if there is no policy in place to compensate you? The answer is something called uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, a policy you hold which makes up the difference between what you are entitled to, and what the other driver's insurance is able to cover. Here in Arizona, it can literally mean the difference between no money and millions.
Many people mistakenly believe that suing their own insurance company to cover the full amount is somehow unfair. In fact, it is the express purpose of uninsured motorist coverage to pay out such claims, and you paid for the privilege. The fact that your insurance company is dragging its feet is only too common - insurance companies are notoriously reluctant to fill any claim whatsoever, especially large cash settlements. The good news is that with an experienced Arizona car insurance attorney in your corner, you can expect a fair payday.
One of the other great misconceptions about underinsured motorist claims is that the other driver must be compelled to pay as well. While a strong argument can be made for justice in that regard, typically drivers without insurance do not hold policies because they simply can't afford them. Suing a party such as this for significant sums may offer some visceral satisfaction, but there is generally little or no money available. Insurance carriers, on the other hands, are grossly profitable corporations who keep enormous cash reserves on hand for precisely this contingency. Moreover, it is the law that they must compensate you for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering if the other driver's policy cannot.
