policy with a limit of $100,000. Additionally, I uncovered that the vehicle had an underinsurance coverage (UIM) of $15,000, which was extremely helpful because Bobby’s injuries required more than $100,000. I also discovered that Bobby’s parents had a UIM policy for $50,000, meaning I was able to secure $165,000 to support his medical bills. On the side, I realized that the driver did not carry UIM insurance as required by law in South Carolina and filed a lawsuit. We were able to secure a confidential amount for Bobby and his family. Next, we dealt with some medical bill challenges and were able to negotiate a settlement with the health insurance company for less than the amount that Bobby’s parents had paid. In the end, our hard work and dedication paid off. Bobby overcame the horrible accident as a relatively healthy young man with a secure financial future, and his parents felt significant relief! This case highlights the importance of having adequate auto insurance to safeguard against unexpected accidents! In Bobby’s case, justice was served, and his future is bright!

To protect the privacy of the child, we will refer to him as Bobby. When Bobby, who was 14 years old, accepted a ride from an older friend, his life took a frightening turn. This peer drove recklessly through Spartanburg County, speeding at 60 mph in a 35 mph zone, and ultimately crashed into a tree. Bobby suffered many injuries, including two broken legs, a compound fracture where the bone pierced his skin, three broken fingers, and facial lacerations. In representing Bobby, my first task was to locate any available insurance policies that could provide the financial support Bobby desperately needed. Fortunately, the driver responsible for the accident had a liability
