Can I Still Seek Compensation If the Responsible Party is Underinsured?

Yes, you can. Though these cases tend to be more complicated, you absolutely can still seek damages if the person legally responsible for your accident is underinsured or even uninsured. In cases like these, there are a few different places from which you can seek compensation. However, because these cases tend to be more complicated, it’s a good idea to work with an experienced personal injury lawyer familiar with handling uninsured motorist claims in Illinois.

Our uninsured and underinsured motorist lawyer in Chicagoland can help you seek compensation from:

  • The responsible party’s insurance company
  • Your own insurance company
  • Personal Liability Umbrella Policies (PLUP)

Did you know that, in Illinois, insurers are required to provide their policyholders with uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage? This means that you do have options when it comes to seeking compensation. If the motorist responsible for your injuries is underinsured, your attorney will first seek the maximum amount of benefits from their existing insurance policy, including any PLUP they may have. After that has been exhausted, your attorney can then seek compensation from your own insurance policy.

  • Documentation of Evidence: It is your right to collect evidence related to the accident, including police reports, witness statements, and medical records, to support your case.
