Notable Tort Settlement

When a client’s own insurance company made a “low ball” offer to compensate the client for damages arising from a serious car accident caused by another driver, FAB Attorneys James End and Bryn Baker filed a lawsuit against the insurance company alleging breach of contract and bad faith.  After trial on the underinsured motorist (UIM) claim, a jury awarded past medical bills, past and future pain and suffering, and compensation to the client’s spouse for her loss of society and companionship, for a total award far exceeding the insurance company’s “low ball” offer. FAB continues to litigate the bad faith claim.
