Motorcycle wreck and the need for uninsured motorist coverage
Jan 01, 2014OUTCOME: We recovered the $25,000, I waived my fee and got the health insurance lien settled for $100.
Rather than try to impress you with a case, I would rather teach you and tell you about one of my worst cases. In short, a friend listened to me and put uninsured motorist coverage on his motorcycle. ... However, I had recommended at least $100,000 of coverage and he put $25,000 on it. He was hit by an uninsured driver who still has a warrant out for his arrest three years later. The vehicle he was hit by was uninsured as well, even though someone else owned it. My friend had over $700,000 in medical bills. My blog at AttorneyDesmond.com preaches about the importance of uninsured and underinsured coverage on motorcycle and car insurance policies before the wreck ever happens.
