Stearn Wins Back to Back Trials Against State Farm

What should you do when State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company denies your insurance claim? Call Todd J. Stearn, of course!

In seperate trials lasting a total of fifteen (15) days, Stearn got two (2) seperate jury trial verdicts against State Farm.

In the first case, State Farm had denied No-Fault insurance claims worth more than $100,000.00. After eight (8) trial days spanning almost three (3) weeks, a Wayne County jury awarded Stearn virtually every penny he asked for. After the trial, the Court awarded an addtional $70,000.00 attorney fee.

In the second case, State Farm refused to offer any more than $10,000 to settle a man's claim for pain and suffering relating to soft tissue injuries he sustained in a car crash. Again, a Wayne County jury spent seven (7) trial days listening to the testimony of witnesses and doctors and to Stearn's arguments, eventually awarding $42,000.00.
