- Result: Jury Verdict
- Practice: Transportation Accidents
- Attorney: Vuk Vujasinovic
An SUV crossed the family’s path
The family traveled through Deer Park, Texas, when an oncoming SUV turned left in front of their vehicle. The collision injured all three family members. Emergency responders took them to Bayshore Hospital.
The wife and child suffered mostly temporary injuries. The husband sustained a significant spinal injury and needed prolonged medical care. The SUV driver later received a conviction for driving while intoxicated.
The family chose a trial
GEICO insured the SUV driver. The insurer initially refused to compensate the family. Vuk pursued their lawsuit in Harris County.
After Vuk prepared the family’s case, GEICO made a settlement offer. The family considered the offer too low and chose to take the case to trial. Vuk presented their claims to the jury over three days.
The jury found for the family
The jury deliberated for about half a day and returned a verdict in the family’s favor. The verdict exceeded the amount GEICO had offered before trial.
