Insurance companies follow strict legal definitions of what serious injury really is, and even though there is a serious injury exception for limited tort, you still may not get compensation for your pain and suffering.
There are a few instances in which you could still make a claim for pain and suffering if you have limited tort on your policy. One of these exceptions is serious injury. There is a strict legal definition of what serious injury is and even though yours or a loved one’s injury is severe, it may not qualify for the exception.
Relying on exceptions such as these is never a good idea as it’s impossible to know what may happen if you or a loved one are ever in a severe accident. It’s best to know that you are protected regardless of the circumstances and having full coverage, including full tort, can give you that peace of mind.
The accident attorneys at The Pisanchyn Law Firm want to be there for you through every step of your claim to help you get the compensation you deserve. Please call us as soon as you are the victim of another driver’s negligence.
