Accident involving Uninsured Driver on My Rental Car
I rented a car and did not have additional drivers on the policy. My son drove the car without my knowledge and was involved in a car accident with damage to both cars. What should I do?

Re: Accident involving Uninsured Driver on My Rental Car
I would suggest consulting with a local attorney, especially if there are potential claims. There may be vicarious parental liability for your son. Also look to see if your auto insurance might cover any claims. If so, contact your insurance company.
If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
