Legal Answers
16 Questions Answered
- Q. If pain and suffering, injuries etc exceed the policy limit of the at fault persons insurance. What can I do?
- A: Generally, the insurance carrier for the negligent party will only pay up to their policy limits on a claim. If you have underinsured motorist coverage on your auto policy, that policy can provide coverage on top of the limits from the adverse insurer. There are certain very limited circumstances where one may collect more than the primary limits from the other party's insurer if the insurance company should have and could have settled the case within the limits but failed to do so. This situation is known as a "Stowers demand" and is complex and would require assistance from a personal injury attorney.
- Q. Would I be able to sue for wrongful death? My mother was the passenger in a car accident.
- A: I am sorry for your loss. The law in Texas allows parents, children and spouses to bring a wrongful death claim for the loss of the family member.
- Q. Do you have to participate in a deposition. Or can you just participate in mediation,car accident case
- A: This is a question you should cover with your attorney if you have one. If you don't have a lawyer look for a good one close to your home.
