Motorcycle Accident Law Firm for Underinsured and Uninsured Motorist Claims

Wisconsin law requires all drivers to maintain liability insurance. However, the statutory minimum coverage amounts are quite low; and, for one reason or another, many Wisconsin residents still choose to drive uninsured.

Our attorneys represent clients all the time who are involved in accidents caused by underinsured and uninsured drivers. If you find yourself in this situation, we can still help you obtain compensation to help cover your expenses. While underinsured and uninsured motorist claims involve seeking money from your own insurance company, (i) insurance companies rarely make this process easy, and (ii) you need to be sure that your claim does not have an impact on your policy. We can help make sure that your insurance company treats you fairly and lives up to its obligations.
