What Is Uninsured Motorist Coverage?

- Lost Wages: Compensation for time missed at work due to your injuries.
- Pain and Suffering: Damages for physical pain, emotional distress, and trauma.
- Property Damage: Coverage for vehicle repairs or replacement.
If you carry uninsured motorist coverage, our attorneys will work to maximize your benefits and hold your insurance company accountable.

- Driving Under the Influence: Impaired drivers causing collisions.
- Failure to Yield: At intersections or during lane changes.
- Hit-and-Run Accidents: Drivers fleeing the scene without providing insurance information.
