Adequate Insurance for Financial Catastrophe

September 14, 2009

As we look back at the terrible events of September 11, 2001, we are painfully aware of how quickly our circumstances can change. Even in Mid-Missouri, our peaceful, secure lives can be turned upside down through events and actions over which we have little or no control. Unfortunately, it doesn't take an act of terrorism for this to occur.

Accidents occur without warning. A driver is inattentive and causes serious injury or death. Safety measures are ignored at work, and the breadwinner of the family is no longer able to work.

Are you and your family protected financially if disaster occurs? It is imperative that you carry the right types of insurance and adequate amounts of coverage to protect your loved ones in the event you are seriously injured or killed. Remember, the person who causes your injury may not have adequate insurance to pay for your damages. It is equally important to carry sufficient liability coverage to protect your assets in the event you cause injury to another person.

Many people are confused about the types of insurance coverage needed or how much insurance they might need. In future posts, I will attempt to shed some light on the various insurance coverages available.

If you or a loved one is seriously injured in an accident, please make sure your finances are protected. Contact one of the attorneys at Tatlow, Gump, Faiella & Wheelan, LLC.
