You do if the other person was at fault. If their negligence caused your injury you have a claim, regardless of whether they have insurance coverage or not. Hopefully you have UIM insurance, Uninsured Motorist or Under-Insured Motorist, that will step into the shoes of that person’s insurance that they don’t have. That will compensate you. There also may be other ways to get coverage, perhaps that person was driving for an employer. Perhaps the car had insurance even though the driver did not. It’s really kind of a complicated situation and that’s why you need a lawyer. Contact us, we’ll take a look at your case. We’ll figure out where we can find compensation for you and we’ll represent you and fight for your rights.
