It was a beautiful Saturday afternoon in the summer and our client was on his way home on his motorcycle when a car ran a stop sign. The impact was directly to his right leg and caused multiple fracture legs. He was airlifted to the hospital where, after several hours of surgery, his leg was saved. We immediately investigated the crash and found two witnesses who confirmed the driver of the car passed the stop sign without stopping. We immediately started a lawsuit to hold the reckless driver accountable. Once we learned there was only $1,250,000 of insurance on the car, a letter was sent to the CEO of the insurance company advising a deadline within which to pay their full policy and failure to do so would result in us seeking a personal judgment against the driver of the car they insured. Once the CEO learned of the severity of the injuries caused and the independent witnesses we uncovered, the full policy was paid withing the time frame we provided. The case was handled by Managing Partner Andrew Finkelstein and Partner Elyssa Fried.
