Upson County Head-On Crash: Insurer’s Coverage Denial Overcome

Our client was hurt in a head-on collision on a state highway in Upson County caused by a driver alleged to be intoxicated. Her hospital lien was over $20,000.

The insurer first denied coverage, claiming the driver did not have permission to use the vehicle. We pressed the insurer to pay under Georgia public policy, and it did, for more than $20,000. We also cut the hospital lien by more than half.

Every case turns on its own facts. Past results do not guarantee a similar outcome in any future matter.
