Helping Crash Victims Access UM/UIM Benefits in Northeastern Pennsylvania

When the at-fault driver has no insurance—or not enough—your recovery may depend on your own policy. Hart Law helps Scranton drivers and families pursue uninsured and underinsured motorist claims, including “stacked” coverage when available. Pennsylvania policies must offer UM and UIM coverage, though purchase is optional; stacked benefits may increase available limits under certain policies.

From the first call, Hart Law reviews your declarations page, explains your options, and deals with your carrier so you don’t have to.

  • Do I have UM or UIM on my policy?

    Pennsylvania insurers must offer it, but it’s optional to buy; we’ll review your policy and advise.

  • What is “stacked” coverage?

    Stacking can increase available UM/UIM limits in some situations, depending on waivers and the number of vehicles/policies.

  • How long do I have to bring a UM/UIM claim?

    Deadlines can vary and may follow contract-based time limits; we recommend acting promptly to protect your rights.

  • Should I talk to my insurer first?

    Yes—but let us guide that conversation so you don’t unknowingly limit your claim. We handle the calls and paperwork for you.
