Another Auto Accident Trial Victory!
Client retained Harris Personal Injury Lawyers in the Spring of 2007. She had been involved in a rear end motor vehicle collision 2 1/2 months earlier. The insurance company for the defendant argued that the client was not entitled to any medical treatment and could not have been injured in such a small collision. The insurance company took this position on the client's bodily injury claim, despite the fact that she suffered from a persisting neck injury. Attorneys Ryan Harris and Ryan Sargent tried the case in February 2010. Prior to trial, the insurance company had only offered $7,500 to settle the case. Following a 4 day trial, the jury returned a $32,000 verdict, with $12,000 awarded for past medical expenses, $20,000 awarded for pain and suffering. In addition to the jury's $32,000 verdict, the insurance company will also have to pay prevailing party costs, and CCP Section 998 interest and costs, of about $30,000, requiring a total payment of approximately $62,000 to satisfy the judgment.

Uninsured Motorist Arbitration Victory!
Client in San Diego County retained the Law Offices of Ryan Harris in the summer of 2007. He had been involved in a rear end motor vehicle collision two years earlier in the summer of 2005 and needed a personal injury attorney. The defendant did not have insurance, therefore, the client made a claim against his own automobile insurance company through his uninsured motorist coverage. However, rather than do the right thing, the client's auto insurance company refused to honor its obligations under the client's contract of insurance and improperly claimed the client's neck and shoulder injuries were the result of an automobile collision the client had been involved in 2 months before the uninsured motorist collision. The insurance company took this position, despite the fact that the client did not have persisting neck pain until after the uninsured motorist collision.
The personal injury attorneys at the Law Offices of Ryan Harris arbitrated the case in February 2009. Prior to the arbitration, the insurance company had only offered $7,500 to settle the case, despite the fact the client had a $25,000 uninsured motorist policy limit with his insurance company. Following an all day arbitration, the arbitrator returned a $25,000 arbitration award, which is the maximum the arbitrator could award under the circumstances. In addition to the arbitrator's $25,000 award, however, the insurance company also had to pay $13,000 in prevailing party costs, and CCP Section 998 interest and costs, resulting in a total award of $38,000 for the client. We have successfully arbitrated several uninsured motorist arbitration cases in San Diego and Orange County, both small and large.
