Helping You Recover for Injuries and Wrongful Death Caused by Underinsured and Uninsured Motorists
An uninsured motorist is one who has no car insurance. An underinsured motorist is a driver who has some car insurance, but not enough to cover the damages caused by an accident. While it is possible to sue the other driver and even obtain a court judgment for your damages, trying to collect that money can be difficult and even impossible if the driver doesn’t have adequate insurance coverage.
If you were injured in a motor vehicle accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver in Pennsylvania, you may be able to recover from your own auto insurance policy. Most auto insurance policies offer a rider that provides additional coverage if you are involved in an accident with an underinsured or uninsured motorist. Unfortunately, your own insurance company may not take the initiative to inform you about this coverage. You want an experienced and knowledgeable lawyer to review your policy and be your liaison with insurers to get the coverage you paid for and deserve.
At Metzger & Kleiner, we have the experience and knowledge you need. We obtained a significant monetary judgment against a top-rated insurance company because of its bad-faith dealings with the customers it insured. The insurance company failed to make a fair and reasonable settlement offer in an underinsured motorist claim. We proved that the insurance carrier intentionally did not deal fairly with its own insured customers.
