Drunk Driver Suit
My daughter was hit by a drunk driver a year and a half ago. While my daughter as not injured, her (my) vehicle sustained a large amount of damage but not enough for the insurance company to consider it a total loss. We had the repairs made and moved on. A year and a half later, after meeting Philip Pendergrass, we discussed this unfortunate incident. Philip explained that we could still go back to the insurance company and seek further compensation based on diminished value of the vehicle, etc. e turned all documentation over to Philip and he aggressively pursued a fair and just settlement for us. And he was successful!!
