If you have limited tort coverage, you waived your right to compensation for non-economic harm (pain and suffering). However, if you suffered a serious injury you may be entitled to compensation. Injuries that may overcome limited tort include: facial scars; surgical repair of fractured bones; surgical repair of a herniated disc of the spine; and, mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). These injuries are sometimes not immediately apparent until months after a car accident. It is thus important to get consistent medical care so that proper diagnostic tests are ordered by your physician.

If you believe you suffered a serious injury, consult an attorney. Symptoms of a herniated disc include pain, numbness or tingling down either arm or leg. Symptoms of a mTBI are not limited to memory issues and may include visual and balance problems. At Mayerson Injury Law, we can evaluate your case and make recommendations on a course of care that may help overcome limited tort, particularly if you were involved in a high speed collision increasing the likelihood of serious injuries..

The Declaration Page is different from a proof of insurance card. The dec page itemizes the available coverage on the policy. For instance, under state law your auto carrier must pay for your initial medical care up to $5,000. There are no copays or deductibles and you don’t need a referral. Additional coverages may include collision coverage, rental, towing, wage loss, uninsured motorist (UM) and underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage. This document is crucial after an accident and will be one of the first things an attorney will want to review. If you're unsure how to read your declaration page, we can help.
