Where to begin looking for answers after a car accident

It is a devastating experience to be in an auto accident that results in serious injuries. You may wonder how your medical bills or even your regular bills are going to be paid while you are out of work. If your insurance company does not give you the coverage you need, how will you pay for the property damage to your car?

What happens when you are injured in an auto accident and the insurance company refuses to negotiate or settle a claim? When an insurance company intentionally delays, inconveniently defends, and purposely denies paying claims? Insurance companies generally have no problem paying out a claim, but when the policy holder is under-insured, or the accident exceeds their comfort zone of spending coverage, they are likely to refuse to pay. You, as a victim, have no other recourse but to consult an attorney.

Many people do not know where to begin looking for answers after a car accident. At Hopkins, Barvié & Hopkins, P.L.L.C., we help you find the answers.

Judge upholds jury verdict in truck crash lawsuit

An Arkansas trucking company and its driver are found to be negligent in a crash killing three men on I-81. $2.175 million was paid to the families of the deceased: 27 year old Hilario Goux Vicente and 35 year old Ramiro Vicente-Ajun from  Tennessee and 50 year old Dennis Lavelle Fayne from Arkansas. Two 18-wheelers collided, Fayne was climbing out of one of them, from the passenger seat to free himself after the collision, as Vincent and Vincent-Ajun stopped their Hyudai behind the crash.  A third truck drove by Miller does not stop in time for the accident.
