Expert Help With Uninsured Motorist Claims in New Orleans

Recovering compensation after an accident with an uninsured motorist can be a daunting task, especially when your insurer is hesitant to pay. Louisiana law requires all insured drivers to carry uninsured or underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage unless they waive it in writing. This coverage often provides the best path forward, helping you recover damages for accidents involving uninsured, underinsured, or unidentified drivers.

The Voorhies Law Firm specializes in helping clients understand their insurance policies, negotiate with insurers, and take legal action if necessary. With our expertise, you can feel confident knowing your claim is in capable hands.

Comprehensive Guidance on Uninsured Motorist Claims in New Orleans

Dealing with an uninsured motorist claim requires knowledge of Louisiana insurance laws and a proactive approach. UIM coverage, which is automatically included in most policies unless waived, can cover damages in a hit-and-run or when the at-fault driver has insufficient insurance. However, navigating the insurance process can be tricky, particularly when insurers act in bad faith.

Our services include:

  • Insurance Policy Review: We help determine if you have UIM coverage and what it includes.
  • Bad Faith Claims Assistance: If your insurer denies a valid claim, we’ll hold them accountable.
  • Legal Representation: Filing lawsuits against uninsured drivers or seeking compensation through other avenues.

 

Finding a law firm with a deep understanding of uninsured motorist claims is crucial to ensure the best possible outcome. Our car accident lawyers are here to guide you every step of the way.

What Should You Do After an Accident With an Uninsured Driver?

What steps should you take after being hit by an uninsured driver? The process can feel overwhelming, but following the right steps will improve your chances of recovering compensation.

First, always call the police. The police report will document the accident, establish fault, and confirm the other driver’s lack of insurance. Avoid accepting money from the at-fault driver, as this could jeopardize your claim and likely won’t cover all your damages.

Gather as much evidence as possible, including the driver’s information, photos of the scene, and details of the accident. Finally, notify your insurer of the incident. Our attorneys can help you navigate this process and ensure you’re taking the right actions to protect your claim.

Can You Sue an Uninsured Driver in Louisiana?

If you are injured in an accident caused by an uninsured driver, you have the legal right to file a lawsuit against them. However, there are important factors to consider before pursuing this route.

While drivers are legally obligated to carry auto insurance, some may lack sufficient assets to make a personal injury lawsuit worthwhile. Our attorneys will assess the at-fault driver’s situation, explore alternative sources of compensation, and help you decide the best course of action.

With The Voorhies Law Firm, you’ll receive personalized advice tailored to your circumstances. We’ll evaluate every option to ensure you get the support you need after your accident.
