Case Details
Woody White represented a family from Castle Hayne in New Hanover County, North Carolina who were victimized by a drunk driver. After consuming opioids, the driver crossed the center line, and hit the family’s car head-on. The grandmother was killed instantly, and one of the three grandchildren in the backseat was severely injured. Woody was successful in finding three separate policies that applied and recovered the maximum policy limits on each. He also formally resolved and had all medical liens in the case, compromised ensuring that the family members received even more of the total funds available. Woody’s experience in both criminal and automobile law allowed him to work closely with the District Attorney’s Office who pursued Murder charges against the drunk driver that caused such a tragic event.
Additional Notes
Settlement for family victimized by drunk driver, resulting in wrongful death of grandmother and severe injury to grandchild. Recovered maximum policy limits from three policies.
