Uninsured Motorist Coverage: A Must-Have for North Carolina Drivers

Apr 30, 2024

At Phillip A. Mullins Law, we've recently seen an uptick in the number of clients facing challenging situations after accidents involving uninsured drivers. This alarming trend highlights a significant risk for drivers in North Carolina, emphasizing the critical need for Uninsured Motorist Coverage (UM).


Why Uninsured Motorist Coverage is Essential

Uninsured Motorist Coverage acts as a financial safeguard, filling the gap left by drivers who, lacking insurance, often lack the means to cover damages they cause. This is especially critical in hit-and-run incidents and accidents involving stolen vehicles. In these cases, not only is the at-fault party not insured, but they are also frequently unidentifiable, making legal recourse practically impossible.


The Benefits of UM Coverage

UM coverage is more than just an additional line item on your insurance policy—it's a crucial layer of protection. It covers medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages, providing peace of mind in the unsettling moments following an accident. Without it, you could be left shouldering substantial financial burdens alone.
