On May 13, 2012, Client was traveling on his motorcycle and proceeded through a green light when he was cut-off and struck by a vehicle attempting to make a left-hand turn into a shopping plaza. The insurance company denied liability claiming that its insured had a green light and the right-of-way, and that Mr. Warrell was negligent in failing to keep a proper lookout. Attorney Patrick J. Noonan obtained a witness statement from an independent witness to the crash refuting the insurance company’s denial of liability. In addition, Attorney Patrick visited the scene of the accident and timed the timing of the traffic lights at the intersection to prove that Mr. Warrell had a green light, and that their insured failed to yield the right-of-way to his client. Attorney Patrick J. Noonan settled the claim with the bodily injury carrier for the policy maximum. Moreover, Attorney Patrick J. Noonan pursued an under-insurance claim and obtained an additional settlment for his client. Mr. Warrell sustained neck injuries and headaches, which required chiropractic treatment and physical therapy treatment.
Case Results: Attorney Patrick J. Noonan settled both claims.
