We represented a police officer who was injured when an impaired driver attempted to flee during a routine traffic stop. The driver was arrested and charged with felonious assault. The police officer pursued a workers’ compensation claim. However, the insurance company covering the vehicle that struck the officer denied liability coverage for the occurrence, arguing that the driver acted intentionally and criminally.

At the suggestion of family members, the police officer hired Robert W. قواعد لعبة البوكر Kerpsack Co., L.P.A. We filed suit against the driver and the vehicle owner, who had provided the driver with access to the vehicle. لعبت البوكر Shortly after the lawsuit was filed, the insurance company reconsidered its position, and the police officer’s personal injury claim was settled. This was important to the officer and his family because his workers’ compensation benefits did not provide compensation for the permanent pain and suffering that he will endure as a result of the accident.
