Uninsured Motorist Accident Attorney

Uninsured Motorist Accident Attorney

When you suffer injuries due to an uninsured or underinsured driver, our Edinburg, TX car accident attorney is here to help you get the compensation you need to recover.

Automobile insurance is meant to protect you and others on the road against damages that can result when a crash or collision occurs. Unfortunately, many Texas drivers fail to obtain the proper coverage. Even if a policy is in place, it may not be enough to compensate you for losses. At the Law Office of Raul A. Guajardo, P.L.L.C., our Edinburg, TX car accident attorney has been helping people in these types of cases for close to two decades. We provide the caring support and professional legal representation you need to get the maximum amount of compensation you are entitled to in a claim.

Protecting You Against Uninsured/Underinsured Car Accidents in Texas

Despite that fact that all drivers in the state are required to have a valid automobile insurance policy in place, Texas has some of the highest rates of uninsured drivers in the country. According to the Insurance Information Institute (III), roughly one out of every seven drivers you encounter on the road is likely to be uninsured.

The high cost of these policies is generally a contributing factor. In some cases, a driver may have simply overlooked payments, resulting in a policy lapse. However, in many of these situations, a driver’s license suspension, criminal activity, or being in the country illegally are the primary reason for driving uninsured.

Even if the driver does have a policy in place, it may not be enough to cover the full extent of your damages. The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) advises that the minimum amount of liability coverage is $30,000 per person for personal injuries. This is barely enough to cover even relatively minor medical costs. You could end up paying for lost wages and future costs out of pocket. At the Law Office of Raul A. Guajardo, P.L.L.C., we protect your rights in this situation by exploring other options for getting the compensation you deserve.
