$70K Verdict in Allstate Underinsured Motorist Lawsuit
A Connecticut jury awarded $70,000 to Adam Spencer in a lawsuit against Allstate Fire and Casualty Insurance Company over underinsured motorist benefits. The case arose from a 2022 crash in Middlefield, where Spencer was struck by another driver who lacked sufficient insurance. After GEICO paid its policy limits, Spencer turned to his own insurer, Allstate, for additional compensation. Allstate denied the claim, but the jury sided with Spencer, finding that he had not been fully compensated and was entitled to damages under his policy.
