A 72 year old woman contacted The Dunnion Law Firm after being broadsided in her vehicle. A young and inexperienced driver turned left directly into the elderly woman causing significant damage and injuries. The air bag exploded in the client’s face forcing dust into her eye, hurting both shoulders, both knees, her right hand, left shoulder and left leg. The defendants insurance, State Farm Insurance, initially placed causation of the woman’s injuries on her age instead of their own insured’s reckless and dangerous driving. State Farm refused to acknowledge her multiple injuries. The Dunnion Law Firm found this outrageous and would not accept that the client was in any way responsible for her injuries. Despite State Farm’s constant refusal to adequately compensate the woman, The Dunnion Law Firm continued to pressure the insurance company and their counsel. Ultimately, State Farm conceded that the defendant was reckless and responsible for the damages caused and paid $85,000.00 in compensation. The Dunnion Law Firm strives to obtain the ultimate gain for each and every client. They deserve nothing less.
