A:

In nearly all accidents the insurance company of the driver who caused the accident is responsible for damages to include pain and suffering, medical bills and vehicle repairs or replacement.

However, when dealing with a teen driver, things can be a bit trickier.  We have seen too many teen drivers hit and even kill others due to distraction, inexperience or dangerous driving such as speeding or drifting.  Are the parents responsible?  Will the insurance company offer a fair settlement if the driver had their permit and not their license?  Should a teenager be driving the powerful cars and SUV's they are often given? 

These cases must be handled aggressively.  If not, the insurance company may use their tricks and diversions to dismiss your claim or undervalue your injuries and losses.  They may offer what seems like a reasonable sum when in reality your case is worth double, even triple their offer.

Do not settle and please, do not sign any insurance forms or give a statement without the advice of an experienced personal injury attorney.  With a phone call and a free consultation you could be on your way to receiving maximum compensation for your accident, not just the bare minimum.  Call your Milwaukee, Wisconsin accident attorney at Hupy & Abraham today.  1.800.800.5678
