What Happens When a Car Accident Claim Exceeds Insurance Limits?

Can You Receive Higher Compensation When the At-Fault Party Is Underinsured?

If you know the liable party is underinsured, you may receive just compensation for your losses and injuries. 

Personal Injury Protection

In several states, including Kansas, motorists are required to carry personal injury protection insurance (PIP). This protection can be used to bolster the compensation you can receive when the other parties lack sufficient coverage for your accident. 

There may also be other options, such as underinsured and uninsured motorist coverage in their car insurance policies. We encourage you to work with an attorney for further assistance in exploring your legal options to receive a fair recovery. 

Options Beyond Insurance Coverage

There may be cases where your insurance and the at-fault driver’s coverage are insufficient, but you may have options. While many drivers with low or no insurance lack other assets, you may choose to take legal action against them. This may not be ideal, but the option can be more thoroughly explored and considered with an attorney. 

Why You Should Work With an Underinsured Accident Lawyer

If you are considering legal action or are in the midst of legal matters, we strongly recommend you work with a qualified and experienced attorney. A lawyer, like one from Hollis Law Firm, can speak on your behalf, manage your paperwork, maintain your legal and medical schedule, and give you actionable next steps and strategies tailored to your case. 

We recommend you refrain from representing yourself during your legal matters, as you can encounter many significant risks. You might suffer unnecessary stress, reduced compensatory value for your claims, a lost case, lengthy litigation, or a more difficult healing process. Avoid these and many other adverse consequences when you retain support from Hollis Law Firm. 

Contact us immediately or as soon as possible to improve your odds of success even further. We will need sufficient time to collect evidence, understand your priorities and needs, build a case in your favor, and connect you with other helpful specialists. Reaching out sooner will make this process far more manageable and likely to be successful.
