Why Do You Need a Lawyer for Car Insurance in California?

 

Personal injury or property damage claims are filed with the other driver's motor liability insurance in California. Their motor insurance company investigates your claim and decides how much (if any) money they will pay. This offer is frequently significantly lower than it should be. As a result, you'll need to hire an experienced California auto accident lawyer to help you with your claim.

 

California drivers must have a minimum of $15,000 in bodily injury liability per person, $30,000 in bodily injury liability per accident, and $5,000 in property damage liability. This is quite low when compared to other states. A person's medical expenditures and other damages will surpass their liability insurance coverage limit in many circumstances. When this happens, you have the option of suing the at-fault motorist directly for damages. You can file a claim with your own insurance company if the coverage limits are too low.

 

How do you get compensated for damages in California?

 

If the other driver is somewhat at fault, you can claim damages in California. That implies you may be able to recover money for your injuries even if you are 99 percent to blame for an accident. A "pure" comparative negligence rule is what it's called. The percentage of fault you bear for an accident reduces your losses.

Let's imagine you're 10% to blame for an accident, and you're awarded $100,000 in damages. You can get 90% of your money back, or $90,000.
