Case Details

Our client was injured in a rear-end collision on the way to work on Highway 390 in Lynn Haven. We demanded the policy limits of $50,000 from the negligent party’s insurance carrier and they paid it. However, our client had uninsured motorist coverage with State Farm. The limits were $250,000 and we demanded the entire amount. State farm said no and offered less than half of the total. We filed suit. Prior to filing suit, however, we anticipated what State Farm would do and we hired the expert witness State Farm often hired before they had a chance. He was a well-known neurologist who was a phenomenal witness for our client. The case got close to trial. The defense attorney finally asked, “Will you take less than the $250,000 limit to settle?” We said, “No.” He said, “Ok, we will pay it.” Our client was very happy with the result of the case.
