Resolving Insurance Problems in Florida Accident Litigation
At Baker & Baker, we know from experience that car insurance coverage issues can be a lot more complicated than simply identifying the carrier and the policy limits. In many accident cases, the victim's losses will significantly exceed the other driver's liability coverage. We therefore make a careful investigation of all the insurance issues that might apply so that our client can realize the maximum possible benefit of all available coverage.

In any motor vehicle accident, there will likely be several sources of insurance coverage, including:
- The other driver's car insurance liability coverage
- Your own uninsured and underinsured motorist benefits
- Your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) insurance benefits
- Your own Medical Payments insurance benefits
- Your own health or medical insurance
- Your own disability insurance
- In some cases, the negligent party's or your own homeowner's liability coverage
Under the specific circumstances of a case, other sources of insurance might also be available. If the driver did not own the car, there might be additional coverage to meet your losses. An injured passenger might have access to multiple sources of coverage as well. In commercial vehicle accidents, there might be several liability policies available to meet the damages we can prove.
No matter how much insurance is available from any number of carriers, it's easy to make mistakes in the presentation, timing, sequence and documentation of insurance claims. It's also important to thoroughly understand the terms of any waiver you sign when settling with an insurer. You might be transferring your right to pursue other insurers to the company you settled with.
Our goal as personal injury lawyers is to help our clients as much as possible on their claims. In most cases, that means careful management of the insurance aspects of the case.
