Jury Awards $340,000.00; 4.5 Times Insurance Company's Offer
A jury didn’t agree that an insurance company’s offer was enough.
On July 23, 2001, Simmon Martinez was traveling from one construction job to the next. As he was traveling east on Fond du Lac Avenue and entered the intersection with 68th Street, a vehicle ran a red light and smashed into the back of his truck. The force of the collision spun the Martinez vehicle 180 degrees and caused substantial structural damage.
Following the accident, he was seen at the VA with back, neck and elbow pain. Unfortunately, Mr. Martinez’ back injury did not heal and ultimately required a surgery. Given the permanent nature of his back injury, he was no longer able to do the construction type work that he did before the accident. Prior to the start of a lawsuit, the insurance company made no offer to resolve the claim because they stated that Mr. Martinez ran the red light.
At a mediation before trial, the insurance company offered $75,000.00 to resolve the claim. Attorney Jason F. Abraham rejected this offer and took the case to trial. Upon conclusion of the trial, a 12-person jury rendered a verdict awarding Mr. Martinez approximately $340,000.00 in past and future damages. Mr. Martinez was ecstatic with the result and the hard work put into the case by Attorney Abraham. Not all law firms are willing to try cases. Thankfully, Simmon Martinez hired a law firm committed to doing whatever it takes for its clients.
