Can I add UM coverage after an accident?

You may be able to change your policy for the future, but it usually will not help with a crash that already happened. Insurance coverage is generally based on what was active on the date of the accident. That is why we say: do not wait until after the wreck to understand your coverage. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.

Does UM coverage apply in a hit-and-run accident?

It may, but hit-and-run claims can have special rules and proof issues. You should report the crash to the police immediately, document everything you can, and speak with an attorney as soon as possible. Do not assume the insurance company will automatically treat it as a covered UM claim. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.

What is the difference between add-on UM and reduced-by UM?

In simple terms, add-on UM may give you an extra layer of coverage on top of the at-fault driver’s insurance. Reduced-by UM may reduce your available UM coverage by what other insurance pays. The exact result depends on the policy language and Georgia law — this is something you should ask your insurance agent about before a wreck. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.

What is the difference between uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage?

Uninsured means the at-fault driver has no insurance or that the accident was caused by an unknown driver. Underinsured means they have insurance, but not enough to cover the injuries and losses from the crash. UM coverage may apply in either situation, depending on the policy and the facts of the case. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.

Why do I need UM coverage if I already have car insurance?

Your regular liability insurance usually protects other people if you cause a wreck. UM coverage is different. It may help protect you and your passengers if someone else causes the wreck and does not have enough insurance. That is why it is important to check your own policy before an accident happens. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.

What is UM coverage?

UM stands for uninsured motorist coverage. It may help protect you if the person who caused the crash has no insurance or not enough insurance to cover the harm they caused. It is coverage you buy through your own auto insurance policy, but whether it applies depends on your policy and the facts of the accident. Your policy and your case facts matter, so always get advice based on your situation.
