I have never in my legal career seen such low settlement offers being made to deserving citizens. This is especially sad when insurance companies are enjoying spectacular profits. Things aren't always better for an accident victim if you go to court these days either. Public opinion is harsh on those who seek just compensation in a lot of cases. People often think that the jury system is out of control and that there are too many lawsuits.
Some people think that all injury cases are bogus or suspicious.
I can represent to you that this is simply not true. I do not take frivolous claims. Most victims only receive modest settlements. The media doesn't inform us about the unfortunate people who are awarded little or nothing from juries. We only hear about the outrageous cases, like the woman who was burnt by coffee at a fast food restaurant.
