Insurance coverage
It never fails that when a personal injury client first comes in and sits down in my office, one of the first things they say is “I can’t believe this happened to me.” or “I can’t believe the insurance company is treating me this way”. It is even worse when it is the victim of a Missouri motor vehicle accident whose own insurance treats them badly when they need the uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage they paid for.
This summer I had attended the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys workshop and conference. At the conference, I had the privilege of hearing David Berardinelli from Santa Fe New Mexico speak about his experience representing a couple of clients against Allstate Insurance Company entitled From Good Hands to Boxing Gloves- The Secret Story of Allstate, McKinsey and the “Zero Sum Game”. It was fascinating.
After hearing this program it is no wonder that the company received the worst marks by the American Association for Justice . Click on the link to read the rest of the worst.
