What Your Attorney Should Do to Determine All Potential Defendant's and Liability Coverage: Part I

The first thing your Palm Beach County car accident attorney should do is determine the coverage available to you.  There are important statute of limitations that apply to various tortfeasors and insurers that must be complied with, so your accident attorney should work quickly to obtain information regarding coverage.  You also want to seek a Palm Beach County car accident attorney immediately after an accident to avoid any possible problems with the statute of limitations.

You also want to be the first to file your claim with the insurer so that your gets looked at first of there were multiple people  injured in the accident.  If there is a single-limit coverage, any money available to you could get depleted before your claim is filed.  Once your attorney requests the insurance policy, the insurer has 30 days to send him/her a certified copy of all policies providing coverage.
