Claggett & Sykes Law Firm Obtain Binding Arbitration Award Against American Family Insurance

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) December 08, 2013

Claggett & the Sykes Law Firm is proud to announce that it has obtained a binding arbitration award against American Family Insurance.

The award stems from a lawsuit filed on behalf of a Claggett & Sykes client in which it was alleged American Family Insurance breached the contract with the insured. According to attorney Sean Claggett, American Family Insurance failed to honor a $100,000 policy for his client, never offering to pay more than $15,000 in compensation, despite more than $50,000 in medical expenses incurred.

The arbitrator awarded Claggett’s client $213,617 after years of litigation.
