Passenger Injury Lawsuits
Passenger injury cases can be much more complex than accidents involving only two drivers with no passengers. Injured passengers may recover compensation from a number of sources, depending on the circumstances of the accident.
If the at-fault driver was the driver of the other vehicle, the injured passenger can pursue compensation from that person's liability coverage.
If the at-fault driver was operating the vehicle you were in, you may seek compensation from his or her liability coverage. In cases in which both drivers were at fault, it may be possible to obtain compensation from both.
There are other sources of compensation if none of the above examples apply to your accident. For instance, you may be able to pursue compensation from your own uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage, or umbrella coverage.
An experienced car accident attorney can help make this complex array of options straightforward for you. We deal with these issues every day and can help you assert your rights and pursue full and fair compensation for your car accident injury.
