BLUEBERRY SOUR CREAM PIE

The insurance company for the driver that crashed into James and Maryanne denies the claim.

INGREDIENTS

CRUST •

3/4 tsp vanilla extract

No citation. No witnesses. End of story? Not so fast.

1/4 tsp salt

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Let’s fast forward one month, when James and Maryanne contacted Rinehardt Law. They explained that there were other vehicles traveling at the intersection at the time of the crash. So, the team at Rinehardt Law went to work. To get the truth, sometimes you have to think outside the box. Rinehardt Law made yard signs and put them at the intersection. The signs asked for anyone who witnessed the crash to call our firm. Within two weeks of the signs being up, two other drivers who witnessed the crash contacted Rinehardt Law and were interviewed by our attorneys. The witnesses confirmed that James and Maryanne had the green light. With the witness statements, Rinehardt Law was successful in obtaining a full settlement for James and Maryanne from the at-fault driver’s insurance company. When it comes down to one person’s word against another’s, Rinehardt Law thinks outside the box to get to the truth. Rinehardt law takes the responsibility of protecting our clients and our community seriously. That’s why we go the extra mile. SAFETY GIVEAWAY IG FOR HER DAD
