In purchasing liability insurance, many people are rightfully advised to
purchase uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage. This insurance will
protect you in the event of an accident with a driver who doesn’t
have insurance, or whose insurance is insufficient in regards to the damages
or injuries sustained. As you can imagine, this kind of insurance is quite
necessary in these specific scenarios. However, many people are concerned
and hesitant about filing an uninsured motorist coverage claim, as they
fear being penalized by their own insurance company.
Whether you are anticipating a raised premium or being dropped from coverage,
neither of these events can legally take place simply because you file
either one of these claims on your policy. Your insurance company is prohibited
from punishing you in the event you make an uninsured or underinsured
motorist claim, and you should never feel discouraged from such. Our personal
injury lawyers advise our clients to always add uninsured or underinsured
motorist coverage to their policies, and to make the necessary claims
when needed.
