A young father of three, while visiting another state, was hit by a drunk driver and lost his leg due to the impact. The drunk driver was arrested and jailed. Unfortunately, the drunk driver had minimal insurance policy limits. The Dunnion Law Firm immediately flew into action collecting the drunk driver’s auto insurance policy limits, then all of it’s young client’s auto insurance limits, and finally uncovered additional insurance that the client did not even know he had or could obtain and demanded those policy limits as well. The Dunnion Law Firm obtained over a quarter of a million dollars in total insurance monies and settled the case. Unfortunately, there were still severe problems facing the client due to a huge hospital bill of over $175,000.00 owed by the victim. The Dunnion Law Firm researched another state’s laws and fought the hospital for payment. Under relentless pressure by the firm, the hospital cut the the amount owed by 91%. Now, the client was able to keep most of his settlement money and return to California free of the worry of medical bill debt hanging over his head. He is ecstatic that he chose a law firm that would go to the mat for him in making sure that he received the maximum amount possible in his pocket.
