$500,000 – Insurance Company Claimed Speeding and Inattention

Andrew A. sustained multiple abrasions and fractured right and left arms which required surgery.

The motorist’s at-fault’s insurance company disputed liability claiming that Andrew A. was both speeding and inattentive and as such, they sought to discount his injuries and damages by 30%. Tom Reinecke was able to prove quickly that Andrew A. had not been speeding nor was he distracted at the time the accident occurred. The motorist admittedly “saw the motorcycle” approaching but still made the election, decision and choice to accelerate and pull out into and across the southbound lanes of Archibald Avenue directly into the path of Andrew A.’s motorcycle.

Motorcycle lawyer Tom Reinecke obtained a maximum policy result of $500,000.00 for Andrew A. “Due to the insurance company’s callous denials of responsibility for their driver and flat out stonewalling and delays, I was hired. I met with Arnold and we started a a good working relationship. I started working on his case that day. I promised Arnold I would aggressively prosecute his case and get him the top dollar. After a few months and some late nights working on his case, I was pleased to give Arnold a call to advise him that we had obtained an award of $500,000.00, the maximum insurance coverage, for his case. It was getting justice against the big insurance company.” Tom Reinecke
