Uninsured and underinsured motorist claims in Nevada

Many drivers in Nevada carry only the minimum insurance of $25,000 per person, and some carry none at all. If that driver hurts you, their coverage may not come close to covering your medical bills and lost income. That's where uninsured/underinsured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage comes in.

How UM/UIM coverage works

  • Uninsured motorist coverage can pay when the at-fault driver has no insurance, or in many hit-and-run crashes.
  • Underinsured motorist coverage can pay when the at-fault driver's insurance isn't enough to cover your losses.
  • Nevada insurers must offer UM/UIM coverage, and it's part of your policy unless you turned it down in writing.

Many people have this coverage without realizing it. More Money Morales reviews your policy, and any other policies that may cover you, like a household member's policy, at no cost to you.

Your own insurer isn't automatically on your side

In a UM/UIM claim, you're making a claim against your own insurance company, and it will evaluate the claim just like the other driver's insurer would. More Money Morales used to work on the insurance side, so he knows how these claims are valued and how to push back on a low offer.

Other places to look

  • Medical payments (MedPay) coverage
  • A vehicle owner or employer who may share responsibility
  • Rideshare company coverage, if an Uber or Lyft was involved
  • The at-fault driver personally, in some cases

Nevada generally gives you two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit (NRS 11.190). Property damage claims generally have three years. Some claims, like those against government agencies, have extra rules, so it's best not to wait.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have uninsured motorist coverage?

Many Nevada drivers do. Insurers must offer it, and it's part of your policy unless you turned it down in writing. More Money Morales can review your declarations page for free.

Does UM coverage cover hit-and-run crashes?

Often, yes. Report the crash to police promptly and tell your insurer. Policies have their own requirements, so talk to a lawyer early.

What if my own insurance company offers too little?

You don't have to accept it. Your insurer owes you a fair evaluation of your claim. More Money Morales pushes back on low offers and can take further steps if the insurer won't treat you fairly.

How long do I have to make a claim?

Nevada generally gives you two years from the date of the injury to file a personal injury lawsuit (NRS 11.190). Property damage claims generally have three years. Some claims, like those against government agencies, have extra rules, so it's best not to wait. Your insurance policy may also have its own notice requirements.

How much does it cost to hire More Money Morales?

Nothing upfront. There's no attorney's fee and no case costs unless we recover money for you.
