How Can I Get Compensated for My Injuries if the At-Fault Driver Is Uninsured?

Texas operates under an “at-fault” car accident system, meaning the driver who causes the accident is liable for the injuries incurred. State law mandates that all drivers must carry insurance to cover damages resulting from accidents they cause.

The minimum insurance coverage required by Texas law is as follows:

  • $30,000 for bodily injury or death of one person per accident
  • $60,000 for bodily injury or death of more than one person per accident
  • $25,000 for property damage per accident

Not having the mandated insurance can lead to severe penalties, including hefty fines, suspension of driving privileges, and being held fully responsible for economic damages and non-economic damages in an accident. While most Texans comply with these insurance requirements, issues arise when accidents are caused by uninsured drivers.

If you’re injured by an uninsured driver, you may still be able to receive compensation through uninsured motorist coverage through your own policy. This coverage allows you to file a claim with your insurance company.

At Zehl & Associates, we’re here to help if you’ve been hurt by an uninsured driver in Texas. We will review your insurance policy with you in detail, guide you through the claims process, and do everything we can to ensure you receive the maximum compensation possible. Contact us for a detailed discussion of your options.

What Does Uninsured Motorist Coverage Pay For?

In Texas, while uninsured motorist coverage is not mandatory, it is highly recommended. This coverage typically includes payment for:

  • Medical expenses
  • Property damage, such as damage to your car
  • Loss of income or reduced earning capacity
  • Funeral costs

Having this coverage can significantly aid you if an uninsured driver causes an accident. With a reputable personal injury firm like Zehl & Associates on your side, navigating the complexities of an insurance claim becomes more manageable.

You’ll need to provide detailed documentation of your medical treatments and quantify the financial impact of your claim to your insurance provider.

Insurance companies may attempt to deny compensation by assigning blame to you for the accident. If you are not at fault, our firm will defend your rights, ensuring you are protected from unjust accusations and helping secure the compensation you deserve.
