On October 31, 2023, a Santa Fe jury decided that Andrea Lovato was not fully at fault for the accident and that State Farm had breached the $1,000,000 contract, committed bad faith, and violated the Unfair Trade Practices Act and Unfair Insurance Practices Act. The Jury awarded the family $12,000,000 in damages for the auto accident and another $24,000,000 in bad faith damages with $20,000,000 as punitive penalty damages to State Farm. The $36,000,000 verdict gave the family confirmation and validation that Andrea Lovato was not 100% at fault for the accident as State Farm always claimed her to be and that their conduct was cruel and malicious to the family.

Thank you to everyone that came today and to those who were unable to join us in person, but were here in their thoughts and prayers.

TIPS and TRICKS to follow after a car accident. Each accident is unique, but these are some basic steps to follow if you have been in a car accident: Following a car accident, assess yourself for any visible or noticeable injuries. It is important to note that not all injuries are readily noticeable following a car collision because the human body's natural stress responses can mask an injury and prevent you from noticing it just based on pain. Further, a concussion can affect your body's recognition of an injury. Once you have assessed your health if it is safe to do so, assess the scene. Ensure that you are safe from further injury and/or collisions. If you are still in danger and are able to move yourself or your vehicle away from danger, do so cautiously to prevent further damage and/or injury to yourself and others. . .
