What Should I Know Before Filing a Car Accident Claim in Hawaii?
Hawaii follows a no-fault insurance system for most car accident claims. After a crash, injured drivers typically use their own Personal Injury Protection, or PIP, coverage for medical bills. This applies even if another driver caused the accident.
PIP benefits pay for early treatment and limited wage loss. These payments help with immediate costs but often fall short when injuries are severe. Long-term recovery usually requires additional financial support.
In certain cases, Hawaii law allows claims beyond the no-fault system. When injuries meet specific legal standards, an injured person may pursue compensation from another driver. These claims depend on medical records and the overall impact of the crash. Medical documentation is a key part of every case. Seeing a doctor quickly connects the injury directly to the crash. Ongoing treatment and accurate records help maintain that connection.
Collecting strong evidence early helps support the claim. Police reports, photos, and witness statements show what happened and reduce the chance of future disputes. Organized records make the process smoother.
Insurance companies often question claims in detail. They may review treatment timelines or challenge injury reports. Clear communication and consistent paperwork help avoid confusion and protect your position. Hawaii law has strict filing deadlines for injury claims. Missing these deadlines can end your ability to recover damages completely. It’s important to start the process as soon as possible after the crash.
