Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists

Pennsylvania Auto Insurance Law
Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, P.C.

There is one thing that is worse than getting in a motor vehicle accident in the first place — and that is getting in an accident with an uninsured motorist. Fortunately, if you have uninsured motorist coverage, your insurance company will pay you the compensation for the accident that you cannot recover from the uninsured motorist. Unfortunately, that process often requires that you bring an arbitration claim against your own insurance company.

Not all attorneys are familiar with the insurance arbitration process — we are.

Significant experience with UIM arbitration

At Silvers, Langsam & Weitzman, our significant experience in dealing with uninsured and underinsured motorist claim cases is a major benefit to our clients. We have worked with many arbitrators and know who should be selected. Our underinsured motorist claim lawyers also understand how best to represent a case to the panel of arbitrators so they understand why damages are being sought.

How uninsured motorist cases work

These cases are handled outside of the traditional justice system. Claims are litigated through a private arbitration system. We will choose an arbitrator on your behalf and the insurance company will choose an arbitrator. These arbitrators will then agree upon a third arbitrator. The claim is then litigated in front of the panel of three arbitrators, which makes a decision on the merits of the case. If you are found to have established your case, your insurance company will pay your damages.
