For more than two years after a Chicago-area collision, the defendant’s insurance company made no settlement offer to the injured client.
Shortly before trial, the insurer offered $10,000. TORKLAW attorney Emma Smoler proceeded as lead trial counsel and presented the client’s case to a jury.
The jury’s decision
The jury returned a verdict of $415,875.68 for the client. This result was more than 41 times the insurer’s pretrial offer.
Trial-ready representation
This result shows why preparation matters when an insurance company does not make a fair offer. TORKLAW prepares cases for trial and gives clients the information they need at every stage of a claim.
