There’s an assumption out there that when somebody’s injured there’s going to be a limitless supply of insurance benefits available to them. And often times people are surprised to find out that their settlement is limited on what the available insurance coverage is. In the state of Massachusetts the law only requires $20,000 in insurance coverage. And if you suffered an injury as a result of a collision, that money gets used very quickly towards medical bills and expenses and lost wages.

The number one misconception that people have in car-pedestrian accidents in Massachusetts is that if they don’t have the contact information of the person that hit them, or if that person does not have automobile insurance, then they can’t make a claim. That is not correct. If you’re struck as a pedestrian by somebody who does not have insurance or has left the scene of the accident and you have your own automobile insurance coverage you can still make a claim against your own insurance policy for your lost wages, your medical bills, and your pain and suffering.

It’s very common that I see the insurance company manipulating that information to avoid making payment that injury claim.
