Historically, Florida has had one of the highest percentages of uninsured and underinsured motorists in the nation. That means that your chances of being hit and seriously injured by an uninsured or underinsured motorist are greater than average. (And if you are reading this, chances are you have already been a victim of an uninsured or underinsured motorist.)

​

We understand. For more than 30 years, the uninsured motorist accident lawyers at the Law Offices of Ivan A. Schertzer have been protecting the rights of clients seriously injured by an uninsured or underinsured motorist. (Also known as: UM/UIM.)

​

Earlier in his career, our firm's founder, Ivan Schertzer, served as defense counsel in the insurance industry. He has inside knowledge of how insurance companies deal with claims like yours. When you hire the Law Offices of Ivan A. Schertzer to represent you, you get this added advantage.

​

Get What You Deserve

​

If you were seriously injured or if you lost a loved one in a motor vehicle accident with an UM/UIM, you are entitled to compensation for your lost wages, past and present medical expenses, damage to your vehicle and money for your pain and suffering.

​

Whether at the negotiating table or in the courtroom, our experienced personal injury attorneys know the best way to get you all the compensation you deserve.

​

Chances Are, You Are Already Covered

​

If you did not sign a document that specifically stated you do not want UM/UIM coverage, then chances are that you have it. Your UM/UIM coverage may cover you when you are hit by an:

​

•    Uninsured driver
•    Underinsured driver
•    Hit and run driver

Although you may already be covered, you would be wise to rely upon our insider knowledge of the insurance industry and our experience in helping clients like you.

​

If you try to file a claim with your insurance company on your own, you will be met with delays and denials. Let us remove these obstacles for you, so you are in a better position to receive compensation, faster.

​

When You Are Not Covered

​

If you did sign the document stating you did not want UM/UIM coverage, there is still hope for you. As attorneys experienced in UM/UIM cases and with our insurance industry knowledge, we know of many different avenues available to you, so that you will receive all the compensation you deserve, under the law.

​

We Are Not Paid Unless You Win

​

As personal injury attorneys, we work on a contingency basis; that is, our pay is "contingent" (depends) upon whether we win your case. If we do not win a settlement at the negotiating table or an award in the courtroom, you pay no attorney fees.

​

Personally Attentive, Fully Available

​

Although other people have also been seriously injured by UM/UIM like you, that is where the similarity begins — and ends. Each UM/UIM case is as unique as the person involved; each case can be lost or won on a single, unique detail. That is why we give you our personal attention.

​

An important part of giving personal attention to our clients is also being fully available to them to answer their questions and calm their concerns. To you, we give our maximum availability.
