Truck Accident Victim Awarded 30 Times Insurance Company Offer

By Ward & Caggiano

Recently, our Orlando law firm tried another motor vehicle accident case. As Orlando car accident lawyers we are pleased to share that our jury awarded more than 30 times what Nationwide Insurance offered to settle our client's injury claims. Requested to try this case because of his expertise in car and truck accident claims, Tony Caggiano again successfully took on an insurance giant. Yet, this case sadly illustrates how car and truck insurance companies continue to try to "low ball" those injured in accidents. Nationwide Insurance, like Allstate, State Farm and Progressive Insurance try to pay as little as possible on accident cases.

Insurance companies also try to delay having to pay someone who is injured for as long as possible. These huge corporations can hire legions of lawyers who may try to delay the trial for as long as possible to frustrate those injured and to force them to accept an inadequate amount of compensation. As Orlando Injury Lawyers, we have a long track record of getting injury claims settled fairly or tried successfully. We believe that is what innocent, hardworking folks deserve - nothing less. Unfortunately, too many individuals involved in car and truck accidents fall victim to insurance company tactics. These individuals make the mistake of "trusting" the insurance company or hiring a lawyer who had no business handling their important car accident case.

For these reasons, we continue to make available the Florida car accident book, Seeking Justice: An Insider's Guide for the Injured. When I wrote this book, I hoped it would help people involved in a car accident protect themselves from insurance company adjusters. I also wanted to provide a solid method for injured people to find the right lawyer. From the reviews we have received, it has done just that. For anyone injured in a Florida car accident, a Free copy of this book can be a great place to start.
