South Florida lawyers took a $100,000 settlement snub from an insurance company, and turned it into a seven-figure payout for their client.
The litigation unfolded after Progressive Insurance Co. failed to settle a claim by a Coral Gables woman injured in a 2017 rollover car crash caused by what she alleged in court records was a driver under the influence of heroin.
