Like other personal injury and accident claims, there is a two year "Statute of Limitation" for filing an uninsured motorist claim in California. This means that, if you are injured by a driver who has no insurance (uninsured motorist) or less insurance coverage than your own policy (underinsured motorist), you have two years to do one of two things as follows:
- File a lawsuit for bodily injury against the uninsured or under insured driver in court and provide your insurance company notice of the claim; or
- Formally demand arbitration with your own insurance carrier of the claim.
It is always ideal to be represented by an attorney for uninsured motorist claims so that the proper claims and/or suits have been filed on time to preserve your rights. For a free consultation on any uninsured motorist claim in California, call our office toll free, statewide @ 866-229-0101
