Our California personal injury lawyers were referred a case from a lawyer in Texas who attempted to handle a Riverside freeway truck accident, where one truck side swiped another truck. The client originally hired a law firm in Texas as he lives in Texas and received his medical treatment there. The insurance for the truck denied the claim and said that there was no injury as the police report listed the damage to the vehicles as “minor”. Since the prior attorney was not able to get an offer from the truck company, he referred the case to our firm.
Our firm filed a lawsuit against the truck company that caused the accident and we litigated the case. After some litigation, our attorney was able to settle the case at Mediation for $100,000.00 for our client. There are certain situations where the insurance company for the responsible party doesn’t take a case seriously until a lawsuit is filed and they realize that they face exposure at trial. This was one of those cases and the mediator helped bring all the parties together towards a fair resolution for our client.
