Re: Car Accident

Self insured generally means that the guy has no insurance that would pay your boyfriend money for his injuries. It is likely that the other driver does have coverage to pay for the damage to your boyfriend's car. Your boyfriend's own insurance is responsible for paying a portion of his own medical bills. You should definitely get a lawyer. I would be happy to discuss the situation with you or your boyfriend. My office is in Palm Beach County.
