Q: Can my mother be covered under my uninsured motorist coverage for bodily injuries if she was in a hit and run accident
A: Possibly. Please post more details.
A: You should review the UM insurance policy and read through the language as to the persons covered. An attorney in your area can assist you with this matter and the review of the policy.
A: With many insurance cases and claims, coverage is spelled out in the insurance contract or policy. Review the insurance policy to see if your mother qualifies as an insured person. Since insurance contracts and coverage are not always clear, it is helpful to have an attorney review the facts and policy with you. Most attorneys handle these cases on a contingency basis. Because of this, you will not have to pay any fees or costs up front to have the facts and policy reviewed.
