A Cobra Valuation question

5) The carrier tries to keep the case from going to a jury. Juries hate insurance carriers.
6) If the carrier can't keep the case out of the hands of a jury, they will likely settle for a higher number.
7) If they can keep the case away from a jury they will settle, but for less.
8) If the insured is unreasonable, the case will not settle.

All numbers are just made up by whatever side you're on. That's how the game is played.

Elegant, to the point and spot on, Patrick — thanks.

... and you might be thinking that you would lead off your cross with something like "isn't it true you got your information from a website full of old men with fake Cobras, most of whom thought you were a moron?"

This is what you think of those who participate in the Club Cobra forum? I have found great knowledge here.

And, someone is telling you that idiotic, completely unnecessary post of yours was "spot-on"?

In my LOU report, in my list of those with whom I researched, I was proud to list Club Cobra among them.

Again, why are you sliming up my thread @patrickt?
