Beside the actions of the trucking company the obvious other things that go
into the case are the injuries to the truck accident victim, the amount of
their lost wages. Subjectively as a whole how's it affected their life. The
insurance company would like to say
you have a hundred thousand in medical bills, you have fifty thousand in lost wages,
here's two hundred thousand dollars, let's call it a day.
Well it's just an arbitrary number it doesn't mean anything, so what we
do is put together a list of all of the problems that you're having on a daily
basis, weekly basis, monthly basis, how it's affected your family, how it's affected
every aspect of your life and then we put together
a huge list of all of those things. And then we go back to the insurance
company or we tell the jury hey here's how it's affected my client and it's no
longer just medical bills plus lost wages
plus some
minuscule arbitrary number that the insurance company wants to throw out there.
