Chicago Uninsured Motorist Attorney
Any person recovering from an automobile accident hopes to secure as much financial compensation that he or she can in order to cover the many accident expenses that will inevitably occur. Getting full compensation from an insurance company following an automobile accident can be a frustrating and difficult process, even when the person who caused your accident has good insurance coverage.
However, if the individual responsible for your accident is without insurance, the process of recovering from the accident financially becomes a bit more complicated. Fortunately, with the right legal representation, you may still be able to receive the money you deserve for your accident. For more information on getting compensation after an accident with an uninsured driver, contact the Chicago uninsured motorist attorneys of Friedman & Bonebrake, P.C. at 312-466-8200.
How to Make an Uninsured Motorist Claim
Depending on the specifics of your accident and your insurance coverage, you may be in a position to file an uninsured motorist claim and receive compensation for your accident from your own insurance policy. The Chicago uninsured motorist attorneys of Friedman & Bonebrake, P.C. can help you determine if you are in a position to file an uninsured motorist claim.
To make an uninsured motorist claim, most insurance companies will require that you take the individual responsible for your accident to court in order to officially assign blame for the accident. Once the other party has been found “at fault” for the accident, the court will determine exactly how much money he or she can afford to pay for the accident.
Once this money has been put towards the total accident costs, your own insurance company will pay you the remainder of the damages that you have been awarded.
