Injured Client Receives $500,000.00

Although his medical bills were less than $10,000.00 and most of that was for chiropractic care, Russell VanBeek received an award of approximately $500,000.00 as a result of a car/motorcycle accident.

The accident happened on a summer day when the driver of a car didn’t see either the stop sign in front of him or the motorcycle traveling on the road. Immediately after the accident Russell and Heidi VanBeek, the injured parties, retained another law firm. After two months Russell went back to work as a heavy equipment operator.

As time went on, the VanBeeks were not satisfied with the services of their attorney and subsequently retained Attorney Michael F. Hupy, to represent them. A lawsuit was started against the other driver and his insurance company. Shortly before the trial, the insurance company paid its policy its policy limits of $100,000.00 to Russell and $65,000.00 to Heidi. Because Russell’s physical problems continued, it was necessary to look for more insurance coverage for him. Attorney Hupy found an additional $400,000.00 of coverage in four $100,000.00 underinsured motorists policies. He convinced the insurance company that all four policies were available. However, the insurance company offered only $50,000.00 to settle the underinsured motorists claim. The offer was refused and the case went to an arbitration hearing on August 23, 1996. The VanBeeks received an award of over $500,000.00 including the amounts previously paid by the insurance carrier for the other driver.
