What insurance covers my injury?

That depends on a number of things, including the type and seriousness of the injury, how you were injured, and what types of insurance coverage you have. Two of the most common examples are medical insurance from private insurers, such as medical benefits you may get from your employer, and government issued insurance such as Medi-Cal. Depending on the injury, there may also be coverage for you under renter’s or homeowner’s insurance policy.

Who covers me if I have more than one insurance policy

If you have more than one insurance policy then you should talk a personal injury attorney who can help you decide which policy will work bets for you. In some cases, it makes the most sense to submit claims to all insurance providers who may reimburse you, while in other cases you may want to submit claims only to one insurer. We can advise you on which insurance policy you should be submitting claims to.

Will my insurer get money if I win a personal injury case?

If your insurer has paid for your medical bills then they may be entitled to reimbursement for the medical costs they covered. In some cases, your insurer may bring the case on your behalf. In this instance, you should still call a personal injury attorney because the insurer is bringing a case to meet their needs – which are not the same as your goals.

How does insurance work if I am filing a personal injury lawsuit?

It can be complicated to work directly with your insurance company, especially in situations in which you need medical or litigation costs covered. We have years of experience helping people in the exact situation you are in. There is no reason to waste your time trying to figure out this complicated mess on your own. We are here to help.
