Thomas Dooley's car was struck from behind by another vehicle while approaching a traffic light. His car sustained moderate property damage and Mr. Dooley suffered injuries to his neck and back. Prior to the accident, Mr. Dooley worked as an industrial engineer and had been a student at Central Connecticut State University. Following the accident, he had difficulty with work.
He contacted the Haymond Law Firm for help. Mr. Dooley was evaluated by Psychiatrists and Neuropsychologists who concurred that he was disabled and suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. He applied for and received Social Security Disability benefits. A claim was also filed with the other driver's insurance carrier which initially contested responsibility citing an earlier accident as the cause for Mr. Dooley's suffering.
Following lengthy litigation efforts the insurance company ultimately offered its policy limits of $300,000. The Haymond Law Firm is now pursuing an underinsured motorist claim against Mr. Dooley's own insurance company seeking additional compensation for Mr. Dooley.
