What You Should Do If You Have Passenger Injuries?
Some potential issues can occur with this type of claim for passenger injuries. First, the other driver might not be able to cover your expenses. Even if they can, the process of dealing with another driver’s insurance can be a pain. Fault is not always obvious, and it can take a lengthy and messy process to sort things out.
If you decide to take this route, hiring a personal injury attorney can help make the process smoother and less stressful.
FILING A CLAIM THROUGH YOUR FRIEND’S INSURANCE POLICY
If you were in your friend’s car when the accident occurred, you can also recover compensation for your passenger injuries via your friend’s policy.
The compensation should be clear-cut, and you should get reimbursed quickly in order to pay your injury-related bills sooner. If you are uncomfortable with filing a claim through your friend’s policy, you can also start with the first option above and then use your friend’s policy to cover any leftover expenses.
FILING A CLAIM THROUGH YOUR INSURANCE POLICY
If you don’t drive and don’t have car insurance, this option won’t work for you, but if you do have car insurance, you can file a claim for your passenger injuries through your own policy.
Being involved in an accident and becoming injured is not something anyone plans for. If you want help through this confusing process, you should seek out a personal injury lawyer for your passenger injuries.
