A personal injury case that GLF is very proud of concerns a client who was injured in a car accident and his insurance company refused to pay what their insured was entitled to under his policy and South Carolina law.
The driver at fault had the minimal insurance coverage as provided by state law. GLF’s position was that our client could obtain $100,000.00 from his own insurance company being he did in fact have under insured insurance coverage on a vehicle that was not involved in the accident. Our client was on his motorcycle when he was hit which was not covered by any under insured carrier but did in fact have liability limits of $100,000.00. The adjuster on the claim refused to pay the $100,000.00 tendering only $15,000.00 to our client.
GLF filed suit and started the legal research to prove their position that the insurance company was dealing in “bad faith” and that our client was in fact entitled to the $100,000.00. A few months after GLF filed a Summons and Complaint the insurance company did tender the limits of $100,000.00 to the firm on behalf of our client.
“This is a prime illustration of the importance of purchasing your insurance though a good insurance company and purchasing proper insurance, as well…” says Jessie Glenn.
Our client has since recovered from his injuries and is working in law enforcement.
Early in the Summer of 2007 GLF opened their 500th file.
