Case Results

Baries v. CNA Insurance Co.

Verdict: $1,250,000

A family brought an underinsured motorist claim against CNA Insurance for the wrongful death of their fourteen-year-old daughter who had been a passenger in a one-auto crash. Their daughter was a freshman in high school without any income. The death occurred shortly after the Illinois General Assembly had passed into law in l996 a new wrongful death limit of $500,000 for non-economic damage awards.

This is the only reported case to settle in excess of the limit before the Illinois Supreme Court struck down the limit as unconstitutional.
