Re: drunk driver hit my daughter with no insurance
The problem here will be whether or not your daughter was a named driver on your policy. Normally, relatives of driving age who live with you must be included on your policy, or they won't be covered.
If your own insurance declines coverage, you'll need to go after the defendant, and you'll need an attorney for that. Normally, that would be a problem, because attorneys won't usually take cases from uninsured people. However, there is an exception when the defendant was DUI. The question then becomes, was your daughter injured? If so, please call me toll-free at 877-LION-FOR-LAW
