All states have different auto insurance laws and regulations. If you’ve been in a car or motorcycle accident, it’s important to find experienced lawyers that can handle your case.

Carey & Hamner, P.C. in Dothan, AL, was founded over a decade ago, and the skilled, compassionate, and experienced lawyers and support staff at the firm are well-versed in the nuances of all Alabama auto insurance laws and regulations. They will fight to get you the compensation that you deserve in the event of an automobile accident.

Alabama is a “fault” insurance state, which means that who pays and what compensation is given depends on who caused the accident. Medical bills and property damage can be expensive, so it’s important to make sure that you have proper insurance.

Alabama requires that all drivers carry minimum car insurance. You can, of course, buy liability insurance with higher limits to give you more peace of mind.  Although it’s optional in Alabama, you may want to consider buying uninsured or underinsured driver insurance as well. You’d hate to be stuck having to pay a massive bill yourself.

In Alabama, you don’t have to show proof of insurance to register your car. But watch out. If you get pulled over by a cop and can’t prove that you’re insured, you can face fines up to $1,000.
