Insurance Terms

Deductible

The amount of money you must pay out-of-pocket before your insurance coverage begins to pay.

In Personal Injury Cases

If you file a claim under your own collision coverage, you'll pay the deductible first. If you recover from the at-fault party, you may be able to recover your deductible as well.
