Uninsured Motorist Accidents
Claim compensation from uninsured drivers
Navigating the Challenges of Uninsured Drivers
In Connecticut, all registered vehicles are required to have a minimum of $25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident in liability coverage. This coverage is designed to protect drivers in the event they cause damage to another vehicle. Unfortunately, many drivers do not carry any insurance at all, leaving victims to bear the financial burden of their losses.
Utilizing Your Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Depending on the type of auto insurance you have, you may be able to seek compensation from your own insurance company. Your uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage is specifically designed to protect you if the other driver lacks insurance or has insufficient coverage to compensate for your losses. This coverage can also be applied in hit-and-run accidents.
Representing UM Claims Cases
While it may feel uncomfortable to file a claim against your own insurance company for an accident you did not cause, that is precisely the purpose of this coverage. At Lettick & Lettick P.C., we represent clients throughout New Haven County and across Connecticut in various cases involving UM claims.
