The Aftermath
Many months after the initial fall our client had knee surgery that we were able to prove was attributable to the accident. The personal injury lawyers at Foster Wallace were able to secure our client $30,000 from the elderly man’s insurance (he had minimum insurance coverage available and no assets). Foster Wallace was able to secure an additional $100,000 from our client’s own insurance carrier by making an underinsured claim and arguing what law applied to the accident. After our client’s own insurance company initially balked at settling the case at a fair number, it eventually settled the case for the underinsured policy limits based on testimony from one of our client’s medical providers about the future care our client will need because of injuries sustained from the accident.
