Verdict Of $20,000.00 In Fairfax County General District Court

Our client was struck on his driver’s side from the Defendant attempting to come into his lane of travel. He had chiropractic treatment the next day for neck and back pain and sustained medical bills of $5,000. Liberty Mutual Insurance only offered $3,900 based upon the minimal property damage to the two vehicles. As a response, we filed suit in Fairfax General District Court where the limits to file are $50,000.00. We went to trial where our client was able to tell the Judge what he went through as a result of the Defendant’s negligence. The Judge recognized his suffering and awarded a verdict of $20,000 – more than 4x the Insurance Company offer.
