Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Insurance coverage that pays the difference when the at-fault driver's insurance is insufficient to cover your damages.
In Personal Injury Cases
If your damages are $100,000 but the at-fault driver only has $15,000 in coverage, your UIM coverage can make up the difference (up to your policy limits).
