Multivehicle accidents present some of the most complex issues in terms of causation and responsibility. There can be several layers of responsibility superimposed over one accident scene. They also present a host of opportunities in terms of insurance coverage. However, it’s important to carefully stylize and structure the claims asserted to ensure that available insurance proceeds are maximized.
