Attorney Peter L. Johnston, Esquire obtains a $40,000.00 settlement for woman who suffered herniated discs in her neck after her vehicle was struck by a vehicle negligently being driven out of a parking lot in Philadelphia. Initially, the insurance company sought to force a much lower settlement, claiming that her injuries were arose prior to this accident. However, Mr. Johnston was able to prove to an arbitration panel that her injuries were, in fact, caused by the accident, resulting in a $20,000 settlement against the other driver’s insurance company after the arbitration panel ruled in her favor and an additional $20,000 settlement from her own insurance carrier’s underinsured motorist provisions. Mr. Johnston’s client had wisely purchased automobile insurance which had both the full tort option and underinsured motorist protection.
