Be Informed About Your Personal Automobile Insurance

Your personal automobile insurance greatly impacts the compensation you will be able to recover for your injuries. We advise clients to talk over the terms of their auto insurance policy with an insurance agent. We have compiled a list of basic terms of interest to clients who have been injured in Pennsylvania car accidents. When you buy insurance coverage, you must choose a tort status, which refers to recovering for pain and suffering.

• Limited tort: You must have a severe injury to recover money for pain and suffering. Severe injuries include broken bones, herniated discs, and amputation.
• Full tort: This tort status will offer injured people full coverage. You are entitled to recover for pain and suffering. If you experienced whiplash from a rear-end collision, this is the coverage that would benefit you.
• Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Coverage (UM/UIM): This is optional coverage. UM and UIM will provide coverage if you are injured by a person who does not carry auto insurance or whose policy will not offer full compensation for your loss.
• Stacking: You can stack policy limits for more than one vehicle. This makes more monetary compensation available to you for your injuries. Stacking is often needed for severe injuries.
