Attend this online seminar to learn how to navigate the intricacies of managing a PIP Case! Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is the medical coverage provided by your automobile insurance policy for injuries that occur in an automobile accident. Since New Jersey is a “no fault state,” necessary medical expenses are reimbursed by the injured party’s own automobile insurance carrier’s PIP benefits, regardless of fault.
Learn from an experienced panel as they guide you through the fundamentals of representing clients in PIP cases. This panel will answer your “PIP “questions before you even ask! Discover what relief is available to your clients, where to file for relief, and the proper procedure to do so. Join us for an online morning filled with crucial information. You will gain essential tips and strategies to expand your practice.
