$825,000 Company Vehicle Accident Settlement

Car insurance is a necessity for drivers to offer financial protection whenever an accident occurs. This coverage can help with legal fees, medical expenses, or lost income of another driver if you cause an accident. However, what if you were a victim of an accident?

In this case, a company vehicle failed to yield the right of way to our clients, when making an unprotected left hand turn, and caused a serious T-bone collision. The insurance company failed to accept responsibility for the crash and instead tried to make the case about our client’s great improvement from her surgeries that were necessary as a result of the crash.

Attorneys Jorge Mares and Lance Kimbro along with their team went toe to toe with the insurance company fighting for our client when the insurance company attempted to mitigate the damages they caused by pointing to the fact that our client was recovering in the right direction. Jorge and Lance settled the case for $825,000 by proving that contacting an experienced attorney ready to fight for your rights can change the outcome of your case. Great job, team!

Current Sexual Assault Cases

Sexual assault victims are hesitant to share their stories because of many stigmas that are associated with those who report these acts. Victims are framed as liars, receive negative comments, and sometimes receive retaliation from their abusers.

Distracted Driving Auto Accident Settlement

There are three types of distracted driving – visual (taking your eyes off the road), manual (taking your hands off the wheel), and cognitive (taking your mind off driving). NHTSA statistics show a significant increase in the likelihood of injury or death due to vehicle collisions when a driver is distracted. Our client was a victim of a distracted driver which resulted in significant injuries.

The defendant driver, who has a history of bad driving, failed to see the car in from of him which resulted in a rear-end collision. Our team of attorneys, Rebecca Page, Jennifer Neal, and Lance Kimbro, along with their team protected our client’s rights and made sure that justice was delivered.

It is important to hold companies accountable for hiring bad drivers, especially when they are behind the wheel of a large commercial vehicle. Our team at Watts Guerra has and will continue to fight for this mission to increase safety on the road. Great job everyone!

The Difference Between Filing a Personal Injury Suit in State Versus Federal Court

When filing a personal injury lawsuit, attorneys are sometimes, depending on the state citizenship of the parties, presented with the question of whether filing in state or federal court is more advantageous for their client.  While state and federal courts have many similarities, the distinctions between the two may become the difference between winning or losing a case. Prior to filing a suit, an attorney should consider the structure of both court systems, the similarities, and differences between the two, and the perceived advantages and disadvantages of filing your personal injury case in either.
