Automobile crash and arbitration
Jul 16, 2021OUTCOME: $310,000
Our client was injured by a hit-and-run driver on Interstate 95. The insurance company said that the amount of visible property damage could not have caused the client's injuries. We assumed responsi ... bility for the case from another attorney and pushed for a trial. The Court ordered that the parties attend non-binding arbitration, a process whereby the case is presented to a neutral arbitrator who issues for the parties various decisions on the issues. The arbitrator was a former judge who found in our client's favor. The insurance company accepted the result, which was an award of more than 10 times the insurance company offer.
