Driver seeks damages from Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance over underinsured motorist claim

Insurance 03

CHARLESTON – A Danville man is seeking damages from his insurance company after a collision with an underinsured driver in Charleston.

Henry Aaron Moore filed a complaint in Kanawha Circuit Court against Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance Co. alleging breach of duty.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on July 19, 2016, plaintiff's insured was involved in a motor vehicle accident negligently caused by an underinsured motorist on Interstate 64 in Charleston. He alleges sustained injuries and damages for which he attempted to negotiate a settlement of the underinsured claim with defendant, but was unsuccessful. 

The plaintiff holds Allstate Property and Casualty Insurance Co. responsible because the defendant allegedly breached its contractual duty to fairly and reasonably negotiate his claim and/or defend this matter in place of the at-fault driver.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks compensatory damages, plus interest, attorney's fees, costs, expenses and all other relief that the court may deem just and appropriate. He is represented by Robert D. Cline Jr., Robert A. Campbell and Letisha R. Bika of Farmer Cline & Campbell PLLC in Charleston. The case has been assigned to Circuit Judge Charles E. King.

Kanawha Circuit Court case number 17-C-1723
