Re: I was hit by an uninsured motorist!

If you had full uninsured motorist protection, you should make a claim to your insurer for your injury. These are tricky claims to make, so you should hire a lawyer. Your lawyer can also help you resolve the issue of the $200.00, though that amount may be your deductible.

Feel free to call me to discuss this matter in more detail. My number is (630) 221-1755
