Uninsured Motorist Accident Attorneys

Last updated on April 3, 2025

An accident caused by an uninsured motorist or a driver with insufficient coverage can be particularly challenging. In such situations, injured victims are often left uncertain about how to pursue compensation.

For residents of Louisiana, navigating these complex car accident claims requires knowledgeable guidance. At The Truitt Law Firm, LLC, our dedicated Covington vehicle accident lawyers combine decades of experience with compassionate representation to help clients achieve the best outcomes.

Overview Of Uninsured And Underinsured Accident Claims

Uninsured and underinsured motorist (UM/UIM coverage) claims arise when the at-fault party lacks sufficient insurance to cover your damages. These claims allow victims to seek compensation through their own insurance policies.

In Louisiana, state law mandates UM/UIM coverage unless explicitly declined. However, even with coverage, navigating these claims can be complicated.

Challenges may include interpreting policy terms, calculating damages and addressing disputes with insurance companies. A qualified attorney can provide clarity, ensuring you take the proper steps to protect your rights.
