Car Accidents and Uninsured or Underinsured Drivers

If you were injured in a car accident caused by a negligent driver who lacks adequate insurance, you may be able to obtain compensation for your injuries through your own insurance company, depending on your specific coverage.

However, settlements offered by insurance companies are often not sufficient to cover associated expenses such as medical bills. If you were injured in a car accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver in Pennsylvania, the experienced personal injury lawyers at Atlee Hall & Brookhart may be able to help you pursue the financial compensation you need as you recover.

Pennsylvania and most other states require all motor vehicle owners to possess liability insurance for any registered vehicle driven on public roads. However, many drivers choose to drive without insurance.

For additional protection against uninsured or underinsured motorists, a number of drivers have opted to add uninsured motorist coverage to their car insurance policies to ensure they’ll receive compensation if they are involved in an accident caused by the negligence of an uninsured driver.

If you live in the Lancaster or Philadelphia areas and you were injured in a car accident that was caused by the carelessness of an uninsured driver, please contact the Pennsylvania car accident attorneys at Atlee Hall & Brookhart for your free case evaluation.
