Louisville car wreck attorney Jim Desmond discussed a “no-fault insurance.” That can be a confusing. In reality no-fault or PIP coverage is a really good benefit available in Kentucky. It applies to everyone in the car, regardless of which driver was at fault.

Even if the other driver has car insurance, it may not be enough to cover your damages related to the collision. This usually includes significant medical bills. If the at-fault driver doesn’t have enough insurance, you should be able to use your Under Insured Motorist (UIM) coverage. If the at-fault driver was driving without insurance, you’d use your Uninsured Motorist (UM) coverage.

Obviously, there are many factors that go into your decision to hire the right attorney to represent you in your auto accident claim. You might assume all attorneys do it pretty much the same way. That’s not always the case. Do you have direct access to your attorney, or will you end up working primarily with a paralegal, case manager or secretary? Can you call the attorney directly? Does the attorney have the experience you’ll need, or does he/she simply dabble in car wrecks? There are important issues you may not have thought about, yet. That’s okay. The important thing is that you’ll now have better information, once you’ve read the following page on Jim Desmond’s website: https://attorneydesmond.com/factors-to-consider-when-choosing-an-attorney/
One of the most important steps you can take in deciding which attorney to hire, is to see what previous clients have said about him/her.
