Answers to Common Questions You May Have After a Car Accident | Attorney Dillon Brozyna

A car accident can turn your life upside down in a split second. Not only can you suffer life-altering injuries but you can also be left with extensive medical bills. Here are some common questions people have after a car crash: Who will pay for my medical bills if I don't have health insurance? The car insurance policy should provide you and your passengers with up to $10,000 each in medical benefits -- if you seek medical treatment within the first 14 days. So make sure you see a doctor within the first two weeks of the crash. Who will repair my car after a crash? The other driver's insurance should pay to have your car repaired. You can also make a claim through your insurance company, but you will likely have to pay a deductible and wait longer to get reimbursed. Do I have to speak to the other driver's insurance company after a crash? No, never speak to the other driver's insurance company after a crash. They will record your statement and try to use it against you later. What happens if the other driver who hit me doesn't have enough insurance? You may have purchased underinsured or uninsured motorist coverage through your own insurance company, which can provide additional coverage for your injuries. Do I have to tell my insurance company about the crash? Yes, you need to inform your insurance company about the crash or you could jeopardize your insurance coverage. But never speak with an insurance company until you learn your rights by speaking with a qualified personal injury lawyer.
