A Montgomery County jury has awarded $800,000 for an underinsured motorist claim after a woman was injured when her car was struck in a broadside collision. According to attorneys representing the plaintiff and a survey of The Legal archives, the award is apparently the largest UIM verdict from Montgomery County.

A jury in Montgomery County Court of Common Pleas Judge Gail Weilheimer’s courtroom returned the verdict March 1 in Kady v. Encompass Insurance for breach of contract. Following the award, the lawsuit is now teed up for another trial on plaintiff Karin Kady’s bad-faith claims.
