Important Laws Regarding Automobile Insurance 

  • California's insurance system is tort-based, which means that if you cause a car accident and your insurer refuses to accept blame on your behalf, you might face a lawsuit.
  • Giving anybody a recorded statement or admitting to inattentive driving, for example, is not in your best interests.
  • At the crash site, all you have to do is submit personal information. The adjuster is unconcerned with how the event occurred and is only interested in blaming you. You will have to pay out of pocket if you did not purchase enough insurance coverage. Our skilled Los Angeles automobile accident lawyer will make individuals responsible for their part of the fault legally accountable.

What does 15/30/5 mean?

Vehicle operators are required by law to carry $15,000 in insurance for one victim and $30,000 in insurance for multiple victims. Property damage coverage is required in California at a minimum of $5,000. (Damage to your car will not be covered.) 

A negligent party, such as Uber, Lyft, or FedEx, must get a larger commercial insurance coverage to protect hired common carriers. Our tenacious legal team will track down these coverages in order to maximize your reimbursement. 

Motorists Who Are Uninsured Or Underinsured

Customers must be given the choice to acquire or reject/waive uninsured motorist (UM) and underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage at the time of purchase, according to the insurance laws. 

The UM coverage kicks in if the at-fault motorist does not have insurance. The difference between the driver's relatively minor policy and the actual losses suffered by automobile accident survivors is covered by the UIM motorist coverage. Underinsured Motorist Property Damage is another sensible choice (UMPD). When a motorist with low insurance hits your automobile, UMPD protects your belongings up to your policy limitations. (Dents, for example, may be covered by this collision insurance.) When an unidentified motorist flees the scene of an incident, UM, UIM, and UMPD coverage may be offered while our Los Angeles auto accident lawyer negotiates with your insurance company. 

Purchasing Other Types of Automobile Insurance

When it comes to purchasing insurance in California, state rules serve as a starting point. You may add medical payments coverage (Med-Pay), liability insurance, comprehensive coverage (Comp), and theft protection to your policy. After suffering catastrophic injuries, our firm's Los Angeles vehicle accident lawyer can assist victims in negotiating a fair and acceptable recovery.

Why Do We Need "Stop on Red" Week?

The first full week in August is designated as "Stop on Red" Week. Many drivers believe that stopping at red lights and stop signs is self-evident and that they don't need to be reminded, but we've observed that this is not the case. Why Do People Disobey Stop Signs and Red Lights? There are a variety of reasons why drivers disregard red lights and stop signs, but in the many years of experienced of the personal injury attorneys , they noticed that the following are among the most common:  The motorist was going too fast. When drivers accelerate, particularly when attempting to beat a yellow light, they may not have enough time to come to a complete stop before crossing the junction or colliding with another vehicle already stopped at the signal.  The motorist purposefully disregarded the traffic light. It has been seen that irresponsible drivers justifying causing collisions that wounded the clients by claiming they were "in a rush" far too many times. Howe

My Personal Injury Claim and the Law of Comparative Negligence: What Should One Expect

Image
Tampa uses a modified comparative negligence or comparative fault system, as do the majority of states. In a nutshell, a comparative negligence system permits a victim to recover compensation for injuries and financial losses even if he or she is partially to blame for the incident , subject to certain restrictions. What is Comparative Negligence and How Does It Work? Compensation may be paid in proportion to the parties' negligence. Again, modified comparative fault systems vary each state. Tampa is one of the states that have that 51% threshold. Under the Tampa comparative negligence law, a victim can claim compensation for injuries if they were less than 50% at fault. Insurance adjusters assign fault to each person involved in an accident. A jury determines the degree of responsibility if a case goes to trial. If a jury deems you partially responsible and award damages, your judgment will be reduce. How Will It Affect My Reward?  When a jury decides a personal injury lawsuit in
