Our client was traveling on Cortez Road when another driver struck the rear of his vehicle, sending his car off the roadway.
Our investigation determined that the at-fault driver had personal assets that could potentially provide an additional source of recovery for our client.
Harris Law Group pursued compensation beyond the available insurance policy and ultimately obtained an additional $450,000 contribution from the at-fault driver.
Our client ultimately recovered:
$250,000 — Available insurance policy limits
$450,000 — Additional contribution from the at-fault driver
$700,000 — Total recovery
This case demonstrates the importance of investigating potential sources of recovery beyond the applicable insurance policy when a client’s injuries substantially exceed the available coverage.
