Seguin Uninsured Driver Accident Lawyer
Getting into a car accident is stressful enough — but discovering the other driver has no insurance can turn a difficult situation into a nightmare. If you were hit by an uninsured or underinsured motorist in Seguin, you’re not out of options. A Seguin uninsured driver accident lawyer at the Law Office of Israel Garcia can help you explore alternative paths to compensation and fight for what you deserve.
What Happens When the At-Fault Driver Has No Insurance?
Texas law requires all drivers to carry minimum liability insurance. Unfortunately, not everyone follows the law. When a crash occurs and the at-fault driver lacks coverage, victims often feel trapped — especially when medical bills and car repairs start piling up.
Here’s what may be available to you:
– **Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) Coverage**: If you’ve elected this coverage on your own policy, it may step in to cover medical costs, lost income, and more.
– **Personal Injury Protection (PIP)**: This optional coverage may also help with medical bills, regardless of fault.
– **Other insurance options**: Depending on your case, we may also look into MedPay, health insurance, or suing the at-fault driver personally — though recovery in those cases may be limited.
Our uninsured driver accident lawyers in Seguin know how to navigate the complexities of UM/UIM claims and stand up to insurance companies trying to deny, delay, or minimize your payout.
Common Scenarios in Uninsured Driver Accidents
Uninsured or underinsured accidents can happen in many ways, including:
– Hit-and-run collisions where the driver is never identified
– Crashes with out-of-state drivers who carry lower minimum coverage
– Accidents with drivers whose policies have lapsed or were canceled
– Underinsured motorists whose policy limits don’t fully cover your damages
These scenarios can leave victims wondering how they’ll pay for:
– Hospital stays and surgeries
– Physical therapy and follow-up care
– Lost wages or reduced earning potential
– Vehicle replacement or repairs
– Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
Don’t let an irresponsible driver or a tightfisted insurer dictate your recovery. Let us help.

What if I don’t know whether I have UM/UIM coverage?
Texas insurance companies are required to offer UM/UIM coverage, but many drivers decline it without fully understanding what it provides. We’ll review your policy for free and explain what coverage you have. If UM/UIM applies, we’ll pursue every dollar you’re entitled to — and challenge the insurer if they try to lowball your claim.
Can I sue the uninsured driver personally?
Yes, you can, but collecting from an uninsured driver is often difficult. These individuals usually lack the financial resources to pay a judgment. In most cases, it’s more effective to seek recovery through your own insurance or explore other coverage options. We’ll advise you on the best strategy for your situation.
What if I was a passenger during the accident?
Passengers may still be covered under the vehicle owner’s insurance or their own personal policy. If the at-fault driver was uninsured, our team can help determine which policies apply and how to maximize your compensation, even if you weren’t driving at the time.
