This is not something that you can do AFTER an accident. Obviously, you never know when you are going to be in an accident. There are many uninsured or underinsured motorists in Florida. By purchasing uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage on your car in Florida, you will be protected if you, a resident relative, or someone occupying your vehicle is in an accident where they are not at fault but the person who is at fault has 1) no insurance, 2) not enough insurance, or 3) if there is a hit and run scenario. As an attorney that handles cases in Florida, I have seen many cases where my clients wish they had purchased uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage (called UM or UIM coverage). Once you are in an accident, it is too late as the insurance has to be in effect at the time of the accident.

It is important to note that an injury case is unique and should be judged based on its very specific facts. The discussions in this blog, and there is a lot, is intended to be general in nature and should not to be construed as specific for your case, as the slightest difference in the facts of the case could completely change the result. Also, this blog is based on Florida law and the laws of another state and certainly another country could vary drastically from Florida.
