Florida Laws Regarding Motorist Insurance

Insurance companies in Florida that sell automobile insurance are required to offer people uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage. Even if the driver who hit you or a family member does not have insurance, or has little insurance coverage, you may be entitled to compensation under your own personal automobile insurance policy or the insurance policy of a family member. You also may be entitled to compensation from a relative's insurance policy. These alternatives exist under Florida law precisely to deal with circumstances such as these, where the driver who caused the accident has insufficient or no insurance coverage, or where the driver to blame cannot be identified for various reasons.

Randall L. Spivey is a Fort Myers uninsured motorist lawyer experienced in representing drivers who have been injured or killed as a result of the negligence of uninsured or underinsured motorists. Our goal is to obtain compensation for the victim of the accident and his or her family, regardless of the insurance coverage available to the person who caused the accident. This means that we sometimes must look to alternate sources of recovery for our clients, including employers, relatives, businesses, and even the victim’s own insurance company.

The uninsured motorist coverage that insurers are required to offer in the state of Florida includes protection from "phantom" drivers who leave the scene of accidents, hit-and-run drivers, and drivers who cause accidents but are never identified. Florida law allows a victim of an uninsured motorist to bring an action directly against his or her own automobile insurance company in order to provide coverage for the accident.
