Car Wreck Off I-45

The day before trial in November of 2016, Allstate Insurance’s lawyers decided to do the right thing and pay for all of our clients’ damages resulting from a car wreck off I-45 in Houston, Texas. Our clients were driving north on a feeder road to I-45 when Defendant, a driver in her mid-80s, suddenly moved from a dead stop in the center lane across all the lanes of traffic towards a James Coney Island entrance. Our clients tried to veer out of the way but struck her vehicle. They suffered whiplash injuries and Allstate’s lawyers denied everything as usual until we discovered that the reason their insured made such a dangerous lane change was because had cataracts and glaucoma. They denied and then delayed resolution of the claims until the very last minute. In the end, they paid what was fair to our clients.
