Common Problems with Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Claims

Your insurance company is supposed to step into the shoes of the person who caused your motor vehicle accident and pay compensation for your personal injuries and their consequences.

• A common problem is that the insurance company treats you like an adversary and attempts to pay you less than the value of your claim. Sometimes the insurer refuses to pay you anything unless you agree to give up your right to get full compensation. These practices are against Colorado law.
• Another common problem involves the purchase of automobile insurance. The sales agent or selling company must offer uninsured motorist coverage which is usually equal to liability limits. If you have uninsured motorist coverage which is less than your liability limits, the sales agent and the insurer may have made a mistake.
• Your insurance company has an obligation to investigate your claim and treat their interests in a way that has no greater importance than your interests. The insurance company should obtain all records, but should not bully you with unreasonable requests for your relevant records.

We can help you with all of these common problems.

As a general rule, insurance companies do not want to pay out anymore than they have to. This means that even though you may have purchased underinsured or uninsured motorist coverage, your insurance company may still deny your claim.

Not only does our firm strive to get the money under the policy, but we also attempt to uncover any dirty tricks or deception in which the insurance company engaged. The insurers are then compelled to pay the consequences of withholding the money in your hour of need.
