Why It’s Important to Have Under-Insured Motorist Coverage on Your Insurance Policy

A Bucks County Police Officer recently recovered almost $300,000 for injuries that he suffered in a car accident. The Police Officer was on his way to work when another driver pulled out in front of him and struck his car. The Officer suffered serious injuries and had to be airlifted to a Philadelphia Hospital when it was determined that he had fractured his neck. 

After four months of intense rehabilitation, the Police Officer was able to return to work. The driver of the other vehicle only had $100,000 worth of car insurance. This policy was given to the Police Officer. Fortunately, the Police Officer also had under-insurance coverage on his auto policy. Through this policy, I was able to recover an additional $200,000 for the Police Officer from his own auto insurance carrier.
