Attorneys David Daggett and Griff Shuler of Daggett Shuler Law recently appeared on Triad Today to share the facts everyone should have about car insurance. Watch the segment:

Car insurance is something many people purchase, and don’t think about again until an accident happens. If the worst does happen, you want to be covered in order to recover the costs for any medical bills, lost wages, or pain and suffering that may result from the accident. It’s a good idea to check your auto coverage from time to time. Now is an especially good time to review your coverage, given that many people are driving less due to the pandemic. Summer plans are also on the horizon for some – if you’re planning to travel out of state, you’ll want to check to see how your out-of-state coverage works.

North Carolina has minimum auto insurance requirements, as do most states. In North Carolina, the following coverage is mandated:

  • Bodily Injury per person – $30,000
  • Bodily Injury per accident – $60,000
  • Property Damage  – $25,000

Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist coverage is available in North Carolina.  Uninsured coverage is available beginning at $30,000 per person.  Underinsured Motorist coverage is available beginning at $50,000 per person.

Uninsured Motorist (“UM”) coverage comes into play when the other driver in an accident has no auto insurance. UM coverage is designed to protect you and help you receive compensation for your injuries associated with an accident. Startlingly, in North Carolina approximately 10% of drivers have no insurance whatsoever. This number is even higher in other states – for example, Florida has nearly 26% of drivers on the road with no insurance.

Underinsured Motorist (“UIM”) coverage is designed to cover the gap in coverage when the other driver does not have enough insurance to cover the cost of all of  your injuries. Your UIM insurance would then kick in to cover up to your policy limits, which is why you should have a generous limit on your policy.

The car accident attorneys at Daggett Shuler recommend the following UIM coverage, in order to be adequately protected:

  • UIM Bodily Injury – $100,000 per person, $300,000 per accident

Later in the episode, David Daggett also participated in the Roundtable discussion with Ogi Overman and Keith Grandberry. They talked about current news items and political issues. Watch the video:

Thank You for Everything

I would like to take time to thank the staff at Daggett Shuler Attorneys at Law. To Megan Youngblood for helping me get my disability started; thank you so much for everything!

Olivia Winston

Outstanding

My experience with Daggett Shuler was amazing. James Cohn was the attorney I worked with for my workers’ compensation claim. He is an awesome attorney. I was injured while on the job performing my duties with a local company, and the next Monday was fired because they did not want to pay my medical bills. After going to Daggett Shuler they looked after me throughout the process. The Daggett Shuler team was outstanding in their professionalism and empathy.

I was expecting it to take years to get disability and Daggett Shuler went above and beyond to get it as quickly as possible. They got the disability awarded in 6 maybe 8 months tops. I would recommend Daggett Shuler to anyone filing a disability claim. These guys will have your back for sure!

Couldn't Be More Pleased

A wonderful law firm who personally takes care of your issues. Workers’ Comp can be a nightmare in so many ways so it is good to have an exceptional attorney with that experience guiding you through the process. Griff Shuler was my attorney and I couldn’t be more pleased with the way he handled my case.
