Lost Wage Claim Of $25,000.00 Finally Awarded

Our client was struck from behind by an Allstate Insured in Fairfax County. Our client suffered pain to his neck and back and underwent therapy with a chiropractor that totaled $15,000. Our client was a contractor and, due to his injuries, he was unable to begin a home renovation job and had to return the retainer, as well as losing out on $25,000 of profit. Allstate, at first, refused to include the project profit loss in the claim and we were forced to file a lawsuit in the Fairfax County Circuit Court. Following the deposition of the customer, Allstate offered up the policy limits of $50,000. We were thereafter able to add another $10,000 from the client’s Underinsured Motorist Policy with Liberty Mutual.
