New Jersey PIP Litigation Lawyer
Personal Injury Protection • Slip and Fall • Construction Accidents
Most automobile insurance policies issued in New Jersey include as part of their premium Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, which provides coverage for medical bills for injuries caused by automobile accidents to a policy holder and certain family members. The automobile insurance company collects premiums and promises to cover all reasonable and necessary medical expenses that arise out of medical treatment after an accident. However, while insurance companies demand timely premium payments, they often delay paying out claims for any number of reasons. Often, it becomes necessary to litigate unpaid claims against one’s own insurance company. The lawyers of Turlik & Budanitsky, P.C. are highly experienced in prosecuting PIP claims against insurance companies.
Health care providers, including doctors, surgical centers and diagnostic facilities, seeking reimbursement for services provided to an automobile accident victim, often experience delays receiving payment of their bills from PIP insurance policies. It is not uncommon for an insurance company to substitute its own judgment on how a patient should be medically treated, even if it contradicts the opinion of the treating physician. Although a bill may remain unpaid, a medical provider may be reluctant to place their patients into collections. As an alternative, many such medical providers turn to the attorneys of Turlik & Budanitsky, P.C. to collect payment of their bills directly from the insurance company, thereby avoiding the need to sue a patient. The law firm combines knowledge, experience and efficiency to hold insurance companies to their promise to protect their own policy holders.
