anyone been threatened with sanctions for making plaintiff do mediation (in state where it’s required by law), and making the plaintiff appear in person when you were ordered by the court to have a claim handler in person? Plaintiff’s counsel refuses to negotiate off policy limits when the case isn’t worth policy limits.

And respectfully, you sound new. OC is attempting to scare you into a bigger settlement by taking advantage of your lack of experience. It’s one of the many shitty moves PI attorneys love to pull.

I offered to hold mediation at a location closer to the plaintiff but plaintiffs counsel opted to have it 2 hours away from where the plaintiff lives.

We had a mobile claim rep there that familiarized himself with the case and had authority to negotiate and settle the case there, instead of having the main claim handler there travel from states away.

Plaintiff’s counsel has reiterated their policy limits demand and stated that we have 15 days to pay or they will not accept any settlement prior to trial and will seek excess verdict at trial.

And they said they are moving for sanctions because we “made” them do mediation and “made” their client show up and we had a mobile claim rep there who was not initially assigned the file.

I work at a small Midwest ID firm doing mostly MVAs for an Insurance Carrier. Currently have a case where where plaintiff is claiming extensive lost wages from missing tips from working as a bartender/waitress. Place of employment is a strip club, I got a feeling she’s a dancer not a bartender or waitress. But it got me wondering has anyone ran into someone claiming lost wages or revenue from being an OF creator and not being able to crate content due to injury?

Anyone ever have to go to Small Claims Court? We just got assigned a case where a Plaintiff is disagreeing with the insurance company’s repair estimate for their vehicle from a fender bender.

Anyone have any suggestions for getting a client to cooperate with discovery. We were retained by a insurance company for their insured and he has not returned emails or phone calls in about 4 weeks. Plaintiff’s counsel wants a settlement offer, and discovery responses or they’re gonna file a motion to compel. The company has been made aware of the insured’s noncooperation but they have tell us they’re pulling coverage for us to withdraw.
