Did The Insurance Company Deny Your Claim? Our Attorneys Can Help

Even if the other driver is uninsured or underinsured, you still may be able to file a claim with your own insurance company. But this option is only available if you’ve purchased underinsured or uninsured motorist coverage, which is sometimes called UM/UIM coverage. While Illinois law requires all insurance companies to offer this feature, you aren’t obligated to buy it. That’s why it’s important to look over your policy carefully and find out what it covers.

If you have uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage included in your insurance, you still may have to fight to get the money you deserve. Insurance companies don’t like having claims filed against them. You may need an attorney to intervene on your behalf.
