In a car accident, a party may be liable for failing to follow a reasonable standard of care, which results in the injury of another person. Under the law of negligence, a person acting negligently will be required to pay damages to the injured party.

Some insurance questions to consider if you are in an accident:

• Does the other driver have insurance?
• Do you have insurance?
• If you have insurance, do you have uninsured motorist coverage?
• Will the driver's insurance cover your losses?

A victim must report to their insurance company as soon as possible to put them on notice. If you do not notify your insurance company you may lose your right to the claim.

All too often, victims expect that the insurance company of the other driver will cover their claims. Unfortunately, the other driver may not have insurance and your insurance company should be required to cover the claim. If you fail to report your accident within a designated period of time, you may risk losing your coverage. In another instance, the other driver's insurance may not be sufficient to cover your claim. For this reason, you should always alert your own insurance company if you have been in an accident.

Our attorneys will deal directly with insurance companies so you do not have to risk losing coverage for your claim. If the other driver's insurance is non-existent or insufficient, our attorneys will pursue other options to insure that you get the coverage you need for your automobile accident losses.

If you or a loved one requires long-term or institutionalized care, our attorneys will pursue recovery for future health costs. At Jaffe & Erdberg, P.C, we have established relationships with various health care providers and can arrange for you to get treated and pay for the treatment out of your award so that you do not have up front medical costs.
