$21 Million Verdict

Berks County trial judge awarded our clients $18 million in punitive damages and $3 million in attorney fees pursuant to Pennsylvania’s insurance bad faith statute.

The trial court found that the insurer, with a knowing disregard, placed its insured at risk to suffer injury or death by permitting a motor vehicle to be returned with extensive structural repair failures after that vehicle had been declared a structural total loss, and that the insurer applied a scorched earth litigation strategy to price us out of court, paying its own attorneys over $3 million to defend the bad faith lawsuit over a $25,000 collision claim.

To learn more about the case and appellate proceedings review the following:

  • $2,650,000 Retired School Custodian

    Commercial truck ran off the road and slammed into our client’s vehicle as it was legally parked in front of a restaurant, causing extensive facial injuries and extended hospitalization. Mayerson Law secured $2.65 million following a zoom mediation held during the 2020 COVID pandemic.

  • $1,965,000 Injured Good Samaritan
    An auto mechanic was struck and injured by a hit and run driver while trying to assist a stranded motorist. When his insurance company refused to fairly adjust his claim, Mayerson attorneys pressed a bad faith claim to a $1,965,000.00 out of court settlement
  • $1,600,000 Reckless Driver Car Accident

    The client was a police officer struck in the rear by an independent contractor engaged in same-day delivery services for national mail carrier. The independent contractor had a long history of driving citations, including DUI and operating a motor vehicle under a suspended license. Mayerson Injury Law was able to award the officer with a $1.6 million settlement in this motor vehicle case.

  • $1,150,000 Head On Collision Case
    My client, Kelly K., was involved in a head on collision, sustaining multiple fractures to her arms, legs, and pelvis. Her recovery was long and painful, and she was left with substantial residual scarring to both legs and a permanent limp. At the time of the accident she was already permanently disabled. Thus, her damages were largely non economic, i.e. pain and suffering.
  • $1,150,000 Young Single Mother Permanently Disabled in Head-On Collision
    Mayerson attorneys were able to obtain a 1.15 million dollar settlement for a young woman who suffered multiple compound fractures after being struck head-on by a negligent driver.
  • $1,130,000 Father of Three
    When an electric company employee and father of three was badly injured in a head-on collision, the insurance company unreasonably refused to settle on its $500,000 policy limits. An arbitration panel found that the insurance company had acted in bad faith and forced it to pay policy limits, plus an additional $600,000, for a total recovery of $1.13 million.
  • $1,075,000 Truck Driver
    Mayerson attorneys were able to obtain $1.075 million for a truck driver who suffered a torn rotator cuff and detached bicep tendon after his rig was t-boned by a negligent driver.
  • $1,025,000 Underinsured Motorist Arbitration
    In this case, our clients were hit head on in the west bound lane of Route 422, by a women driving eastbound, in the westbound lane. Our client, husband and father of four, sustained significant injuries requiring a fusion of his cervical spine, and a significant post concussive syndrome.

    The case is noteworthy because the insurer paid well over $660,000 of underinsured motorist benefits, even though the policy provided only $60,000 of benefits. The extra $600,000 was paid pursuant to a written agreement precluding any future lawsuit for insurance bad faith being filed against the insurance company for its handling of the underinsured motorist claim. The written agreement was reached just prior to the verdict being awarded. It was paid immediately after the verdict was secured.
  • $865,000 Settlement for Head-On Collision
    Mayerson attorneys were able to secure all available insurance coverage for a client struck head-on by a negligent driver.
