Dear Curtis,

I would like to express my gratitude for the way you have taken care of this case. Thank you for your advice and encouragement during a time when I was completely bewildered by what needed to be done and how very much needed doing.

You and your staff made a very difficult time much easier for me and I appreciate your work on my behalf.

Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Beckcom:

I never got a chance to say thank you for the wonderful job you did on my daughter's case. My daughter will be graduating in June from High School with cum laude status. She will be attending college at U.T. Austin and majoring in Communications. Thanks to your efforts her college education has been taken care of. Thank you again from both of us.

I know that my attorney is good because he won my case and I would recommend him to others.
Words cannot express the thanks and gratefulness that we have for Vuk and his company. His tireless efforts and aggressive style meant the world to us and he changed our lives forever. I will always be loyal and grateful to V&B for taking on my case and being committed from the beginning until the end. I highly recommend these guys with 100% assuredness that they will work hard for you and help you receive what you deserve.

I would like to thank Brian Beckcom and his staff for their professionalism and their support. . . I knew when I met Brian that he was more than qualified to handle my father's wrongful death case . . .if I needed his help again I wouldn't hesitate to call.

Just when we thought we would never find someone who would listen to our story, V&B opened their doors to us. For one month, I spoke to 25 lawyers and the answer I received was "your case is a lost case, no one will ever represent you."

I sat on one of your juries early this year. I observed your eloquence and complete passion....you seem to be a man of utmost qualifications.

- Juror on one of Vuk's cases (name withheld)
Vuk, it has been such a wonderful experience working with you and your staff. Thank you so much for all the hard work that you did to help my family and I survive through the most difficult time of our lives.

Phuong N.
Houston, Texas
I was injured in an auto accident in Houston, and was referred to Vuk by another attorney. I couldn't work as a result of the accident and desperately needed back and knee surgery.. . . Vuk was able to get me a generous settlement within about a year of taking my case.

Steven R.
Deer Park, Texas
After my two-year old son was killed by an 18-wheeler driver and me and my daughter were badly injured, we hired Brian and Vuk to represent us on the recommendation of another lawyer.

This was the hardest time in our lives and it was great knowing we had you there to represent us.

Justin and Sonya H., Splendora, Texas

Is Houston Multi Millionaire Getting Special Treatment in Florida Crash?

The Houston Chronicle is reporting that questions of special treatment are being raised over an accident involving Houston millionaire John Goodman. Goodman, who after spending the evening at a society fundraiser and later, a bar, crashed his Bentley into a Hyundai Sonata being driven by 23 year old Scott Wilson in a suburb of Palm Beach, Florida. Wilson was on his way to his mother's house. Authorities are investigating whether Goodman was impaired. Many in the Palm Beach Florida area are expressing their anger at yet another celebrity who appears to be getting away too easily in the criminal justice system. Goodman has hired high profile attorney Roy Black to represent him. Meanwhile, Scott Wilson's mother, Lili Wilson, has buried her son and begins the process of mourning a life cut too short. If you have questions regarding a car accident, please call the lawyers at Vujasinovic & Beckom.

Car wreck cases and the insurance companies

Attorney Ben Glass has a new website with a great article called "What Will Happen to the Defendant?"

Ben makes the point that when car accident cases go to Court, 99% of the time the responsible person has insurance. And if the case is actually going to Court, you can be almost certain that it is entirely the fault of the insurance company.

See, even though the Defendant may be a grandmother or teenager or some other sympathetic person, the defendant has absolutely no input on whether his or her own insurance company pays a fair and reasonable settlement.

And neither does the defense lawyer, most of the time. The defense lawyer is paid by the insurance company, so he has a strong incentive to do what they say, when they say it.

Many insurance companies use computer models to determine how much to pay in settlement. These computer models are set up to guarantee a low ball, unfair, unreasonable settlement.

Other insurance companies will offer bonuses and other incentives to the agents to low ball settlements.

Despite all the commercials talking about how much they "care" about you, insurance companies don't care about you at all. They care about money, and that's it. And they don't make money paying claims--they make money denying claims, collecting your premiums, and investing in the stock market.

The teaching point here is this: If you ever get on a car accident jury, and you have to decide how much money to give an injured person, just remember that the insurance company probably made a ridiculously low offer and is betting that the jury won't give a lot of money.

The insurance company is putting 12 citizens and the Judge and its own insured though a trial just to save a little money.

Maybe, if the facts justify it, you should consider "teaching" the insurance company a little something about how to be fair?

If you’re not in pain, don’t get unnecessary medical treatment

Driving up medical bills, even if you are not in pain, in hopes that your claim will pay out more if one sure way to kill your Texas car accident claim. Of course you should follow your doctor's orders, but you should never under any circumstances exaggerate the extent of your injuries.

The truth will come out eventually and could cause your claim to become worthless. As in the previous blog on credibility, a jury will not provide you with fair compensation if they believe you are lying.

If you or someone you know has suffered injury in an automobile accident, contact car accident injury attorney Brian Beckcom immediately at 877.724.7800.
