Case Details

Client was struck on the left rear when the defendant driver fell asleep and drifted into our client’s vehicle. The defendant then left the scene without stopping or calling law enforcement. Our client’s ride share passenger obtained the license plate of the defendant’s vehicle and the police tracked her down. Our client’s medical bills were only $5,343, but she ended up losing her car that she leased from the ride share company as a result of the accident and being unable to make the lease payments. Our client and her 3 children under age 10 ended up being homeless and lived in a rental car for 6 weeks until she got back on her feet.

Additional Notes

Before trial, the insurance company only offered $7,500 and the carrier became responsible for the full verdict because it could have settled within the policy limits of $15,000 and chose not to do so.
