If you were injured by an uninsured driver in Wisconsin, Natasha Misra Law is here to help you seek the compensation you need to make a full financial recovery. Natasha Misra Law can also help you obtain compensation if you were injured in a hit and run accident.
All Wisconsin drivers are required by Wisconsin’s Financial Responsibility Law to carry automobile insurance, including bodily injury liability coverage and property damage coverage. These forms of insurance coverages are designed to compensate other drivers for their injuries and losses in the event of a car accident.
Unfortunately, some drivers choose to break this law and drive without insurance. If you have been injured by an uninsured driver or in a hit-and-run accident, there is still hope for a full financial recovery by filing a claim against your own insurance company. Drivers must also carry what is known as uninsured motorist coverage. This form of insurance covers you, family members and any other passengers in your vehicle.
Wisconsin personal injury attorney Natasha Misra has years of experience helping victims receive compensation for injuries caused by uninsured vehicles and hit and run drivers.
Wisconsin law requires drivers to carry uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, which can step in when the at-fault driver has no insurance. Many policies also include underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage for situations where the other driver’s policy limits aren’t enough to cover your damages. Our Milwaukee car accident attorneys will review your insurance policy, explain your coverage options, and help you access the benefits you’re entitled to.
Insurance companies don’t always make it easy to collect from your own policy. Our team will handle all communication with adjusters, gather crash reports and medical records, and calculate your total damages, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We know how insurers try to minimize payouts, and we’ll fight to ensure you’re treated fairly.
We’re proud to serve clients from all backgrounds and offer on-demand interpreting services in nearly any language, including Spanish, Burmese, and Rohingya. Every client deserves to feel heard and fully understood throughout the process.
If you have been injured in a car accident caused by an uninsured driver, or a hit and run accident, you probably have questions. Getting the legal assistance you need to recover is just one phone call away.
Wisconsin drivers are required by Wisconsin’s Financial Responsibility Law to carry automobile insurance. At minimum, insurance policies must provide liability coverage for the following amounts: $25,000 for injury or death of one person, $50,000 for injury or death of two or more people, and $10,000 for property damage. Additionally, Wisconsin drivers are required to carry uninsured motorist coverage with a minimum bodily injury coverage of at least $25,000 for injury or death of one person and $50,000 for injury or death of two or more people.
If you are injured by a driver who does not have insurance, you should file a police report after the accident. In addition, you should seek immediate medical treatment for your injuries. If you file an uninsured motorist claim on your own, your insurance company may try to settle your claim for less than it is worth. Don’t sign anything until you have spoken with a personal injury attorney.
If you have been injured in a hit and run accident, you should call law enforcement immediately. Police will come to the scene of the accident and work to find the driver who caused your injuries. You should also seek medical treatment for your hit and run injuries. If law enforcement is unable to find the driver at fault for your injuries, you can still seek compensation by filing an uninsured motorist claim with your own insurance company.
Just like other accidents involving injuries, victims of hit and run accidents and accidents involving uninsured drivers can benefit from having an experienced personal injury attorney on their side. Insurance companies will work to limit the financial compensation they provide to accident victims, even if they are their own customers. Before you sign anything with an insurance company, speak with a Wisconsin personal injury attorney.
Finding out that the driver who hit you doesn’t have insurance can be a lot to deal with. What happens next?
Medical bills start arriving, your car needs repairs, and you may be unable to work. At Natasha Misra Law, we help victims of uninsured and underinsured motorist accidents across Milwaukee, Madison, Appleton, Green Bay, and throughout Wisconsin recover the compensation they need to move forward.
