Uninsured/Underinsured Surrey Drivers and Car Accidents
An automobile
accident is difficult enough when everyone involved is properly insured.
However, there are many accidents every year in Surrey where at least one party
has violated Canadian law and drives without insurance. In this circumstance,
you need to speak with a firm whose lawyers have decades of experience handling
car insurance claims.
The accident lawyers
at Stephens and Holman have handled many cases where the driver at fault did
not carry car insurance. We understand the process.
Under British Columbia law, if you’ve been in an accident
with an uninsured driver and you believe you have a claim against the driver,
you must file a claim with the Insurance Corporation of British Columbia.
The ICBC will, in turn, send a notification to the uninsured
driver. If the driver fails to respond, the ICBC has the right to negotiate a
claim with you in the name of the uninsured person. If the driver does respond,
however, he or she has the right to contest your claim.
The law governing this process, The Insurance (Motor
Vehicle) Act, is quite complicated and comes with a number of different provisions.
Our car insurance lawyers have experience with the law and know it inside and
out.
Let us help you navigate these difficult waters and pursue
the compensation you are entitled to as a victim of an uninsured driver’s
neglect or misconduct.
If you’re a Surrey resident who has been hurt by mistakes made
by an uninsured driver, our experienced car insurance lawyers can help. Please contact Stephens and
Holman today for a free consultation.
