(Chicago – 9/14/2018) It took less than 1.5 hours for a Cook County jury to return a unanimous verdict tonight in favor of our clients against an insurance company for refusing to pay the full insurance policy coverage amount after their award winning 1970 Chevy Chevelle show car was stolen at a national car show. The spectacular car was valued at over $100,000. Over the course of five years, the insurance company never offered our clients one penny to settle the claim. After a four day jury trial, followed by a one day bench trial in which the court found that the insurance company acted in bad faith, the parties reached a confidential settlement on all issues.
