Frequently Asked Questions

I was seriously injured in a car accident in Massachusetts. The person who hit me totaled my car and didn't have insurance. What are my legal options?

When you are seriously injured in an auto accident with an uninsured driver you must rely on your own car insurance coverage to file a claim for your damages.

You have 2 options to recover damages from an auto accident with an uninsured driver – your Uninsured Motorist Coverage or a personal injury lawsuit.

Massachusetts car insurance policies include additional optional coverage called “Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist Coverage” which protects you in the event your accident involved an uninsured driver. You must request this additional coverage when registering your policy and it will only cover up to the limits you set.

If you did not opt for the Uninsured Motorist Coverage your best course of action is to consult with a Massachusetts car accident attorney. Your attorney can review your car accident and help you file a Massachusetts personal injury lawsuit against the uninsured driver to recover damages for your injuries and related expenses.
