If you or a loved one has recently been in a car accident in New Jersey, and are a licensed and insured Pennsylvania driver, we have news for you. You may wonder what happens to your insurance coverage as a Pennsylvania licensed and insured driver if you are were injured in an auto accident in New Jersey.
As a Pennsylvania driver, if your insurance company does business in both Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and your auto accident happened in New Jersey, your policy automatically converts to a New Jersey policy. This affects both the available dollar amount available for the PIP (personal injury protection), as well as the value of the Full Tort option if you purchased it.
Our video discusses how the NJ Deemer statute can affect your injury case. In easy-to-understand terms, we also explain the affect this can have if you need to make a claim for pain and suffering due to serious injuries that you have sustained.
