well three different motorcycle crash
00:06
cases come to mind immediately
00:08
one of which i just dispersed on today
00:11
to the mother of her deceased daughter
00:14
who was killed in a motorcycle crash
00:16
she was driving along the road beautiful
00:18
day on the other side of the road was a
00:20
vehicle
00:21
that had stopped to make a left-hand
00:23
turn truck came around
00:25
the bend hit that core from behind
00:28
knocked the car across the center line
00:30
and killed my woman’s uh beautiful
00:33
beautiful daughter
00:34
the biggest problem in that case was we
00:37
had numerous people who were
00:39
just terribly injured and we had to
00:41
fight through
00:42
limited coverage to get the huge line
00:45
share of the insurance
00:46
to cover the debt in for my particular
00:49
client
00:50
we had another case where a truck wiped
00:52
out an entire motorcycle club
00:55
they had stopped on the roadway down in
00:57
north carolina and there were
00:58
11 12 members of the motorcycle club the
01:01
driver of the semi truck
01:03
fell asleep came off the road at a bend
01:05
in the road
01:06
and wiped out the entire motorcycle club
01:09
we had people who were killed in that
01:11
crash with people that lost limbs in
01:12
that crash
01:13
and the biggest problem we had 12 people
01:16
represented by 12 different lawyers
01:19
and everyone just wanted to accept the
01:20
fact that the truck only had
01:22
a million dollars in coverage to cover
01:24
everybody
01:25
we said not so fast and part of the job
01:29
as a lawyer in these type of cases
01:30
go find additional insurance so it’s not
01:33
just through the
01:34
truck sometimes it’s through the trailer
01:36
sometimes in this case it’s through the
01:38
broker
01:39
we find millions of dollars additional
01:41
coverage that
01:42
made a huge difference in what my client
01:44
walked away with
01:46
as a as a settlement at the end of that case
