Denver Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Lawyer

It’s the law in Colorado that every driver on the road carries insurance. In an ideal world, each driver would carry sufficient insurance coverage to account for any potential accidents or damages they might cause. However, reality paints a different picture. A startling number of drivers navigate our roads without any form of insurance coverage, lapsed insurance coverage, or with only the minimum required coverage. Fortunately, If you have uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage, Jordan Law can get you the compensation you are entitled to.

Frequently Asked Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Questions

What Are Common Issues with Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Claims?

Even with UM/UIM coverage, your insurance company may still deny, underpay, or ignore your claim. It’s important to remember that it is not in the best interest of the company to provide you with maximum possible coverage — they have to pay the settlement, after all. You may not receive adequate settlement offers, the company may suggest you were at fault for the accident, or the adjuster may question the severity of your injuries.

While it isn’t rare for insurance companies to question UM/UIM claims, a company that takes an overly adversarial approach to your case is not acting in good faith. There are a number of bad faith scenarios that can occur during the insurance process.

Denying your claim outright
Failure to investigate your claim in a timely manner
Denying your claim without providing a valid justification
Failure to properly investigate your claim
Misrepresenting the terms of your UM/UIM coverage
Undervaluing your claim and offering an insufficiently low settlement
Using deceptive practices

If a company acts in bad faith, you may be able to turn your UM/UIM claim into a bad faith claim. Your attorney could also use this information as leverage in your claim, helping you secure the compensation you deserve under your policy. If you suspect an insurance adjuster conducting bad faith practices, save all pieces of relevant evidence and contact your lawyer.

What Should I Do After an Accident with a Denver Uninsured Motorist?

The moments after a car crash are some of the most crucial. During this time, you can collect evidence and speak to witnesses, helping your future claim. However, if you have serious injuries, your top priority is to seek medical attention. If you can move around the scene without pain or further danger, you can take the following actions.

Call the police and report the accident. Answer the responding officer’s questions as truthfully as possible, and if you do not know an answer, respond with “I don’t know.”
Take photographs of your injuries, both vehicles, and the area around the accident.
Exchange contact information with the other driver and any witnesses who saw the collision.
Do not accept any money from the uninsured driver. At this point, you do not know the full costs of your injuries, and you may accept a lower settlement than what you need to recover. It is in your best interest to pursue an UM/UIM claim.

Not all uninsured or underinsured motorists stay at the scene. If you are in a hit and run situation, take the following steps to preserve evidence.

Do not follow the fleeing driver. Instead, call the police and report the accident. The sooner the police know about the driver, the sooner they can find him or her.
Write down as much information you can remember about the driver, the accident, and his or her vehicle. Note the date, time, events leading up the accident, and a description of the vehicle and the driver.
Take photographs of your vehicle and ask any witnesses for any information they remember. Collect their contact information as well for use in your future claim.

In all situations, you should call 911 as soon as possible. When law enforcement arrives, speak to the responding officer and ask for his or her information to find the accident report later. Seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if you do not feel hurt, and save all records of your medical visits. After you seek treatment, contact an attorney at Jordan Law as soon as possible.

Are There Other Means of Financial Recovery After an Underinsured Motorist Crash?

There might be another means of financial recovery available to you outside of your own insurance coverage – a personal injury claim. You could bring a claim against the at-fault driver in pursuit of financial compensation through the civil court system. You will have to prove the driver’s negligence in causing your accident and injuries. There might also be third parties who share fault for the crash, such as the city for failing to maintain its roadways.

Maria R.

Personal Injury

They were amazing to work with since day 1. My previous lawyer had too many cases and referred me to them and they immediately told me what I need to do and what to expect. I was not in the dark. They also kept me updated throughout the whole process when there were updates and even when there were no big updates. They even advocated for me and negotiated to get me more money. They were great. Ashley Reisman was such a pleasure to work with and talk to specifically too 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
