Auto Insurance Coverage

It is important from the outset of your case to understand the insurance coverages available to you, including your own car insurance, the defendant’s insurance, and your medical insurance. Often times, negligent drivers fail to have any insurance at all or only carry the California state minimum of $15,000, which is rarely sufficient to adequately compensate someone for injuries sustained in a car accident. In these cases, you need to file an uninsured or underinsured motorist claim with your own insurance company if you have coverage available. A separate body of law governs uninsured and underinsured motorist claims, and it is important to contact an attorney who is familiar with this unique and often complicated area of law. Gruber Law Group has handled countless uninsured and underinsured motorist claims.

Medical Insurance Coverage

How you pay for medical bills makes a difference in how much money you ultimately recovery in your personal injury car accident case. Your medical insurance company is entitled to reimbursement for the costs of medical treatment that they pay on your behalf arising out of the car accident. Beware, not all insurance plans are equal. If you are insured through your employer, depending on how your employer funds the coverage, the rights to reimbursement vary drastically. Finding out the type of coverage, understanding the reimbursement rights associated with each type of coverage, and how to best negotiate a reduction in reimbursement can increase your recovery by thousands of dollars. Furthermore, in many cases your automobile policy has medical insurance coverage for treatment of injuries from car accidents, often called “medpay.” Gruber Law Group can advise you which insurance to use in order to ensure you maximize your recovery. Gruber Law Group has resolved hundreds of difficult reimbursement matters and has the experience and knowhow to negotiate with your medical insurance company to minimize their reimbursement and maximize your recovery.
