✔ $950,000 Settlement – Our client was a pedestrian crossing over Route 50 in the City of Fairfax when she was struck by a hit-and-run driver and suffered catastrophic injuries. The FCPD eventually identified and charged the driver, and through a lot of investigation work, we put together compelling evidence to overcome any doubts about the driver’s liability. With a thorough presentation of our client’s injuries, we were successful recently in resolving this case in mediation for $950,000 . ✔ $300,000 Settlement – In January, we successfully resolved a motorcycle uninsured motorist (UM) case for $300K , the full policy limits available, ensuring our client received the compensation they deserved despite the at-fault party being uninsured. In this case, we were able to find multiple sources of coverage from different auto policies, thus maximizing our client’s recovery. At Jennifer Porter Law, we stand by our clients every step of the way . If you or a loved one has been injured, call us at 571-532-9070 for a consultation.

Victories We take pride in fighting for justice and securing the best outcomes for our clients. Here are two recent case results.

—continued from back page Are You and Your Family Really “Fully Covered”? $50,000 per person / $100,000 per accident. Now, this is a legislative change we can all get behind! But is it enough…..? We buy insurance to protect us from worst case scenarios. When thinking about how much insurance to buy, I always advise folks to think about the very worst thing that could happen to them or someone they love in an auto accident and then imagine they only had minimum limits to cover their damages. Over the years, I have had clients who have suffered broken bones, surgeries, traumatic brain injuries, and even death due to an auto collision. No amount of money can ever fix those types of damages, but money can enable you to afford the medical care, lifestyle modifications, and the ripple effects that extend into your quality of life after devastating injuries. With this in mind, I recommend purchasing at least $500,000 per person / $1,000,000 per accident for your liability and UM/UIM coverage.

DIRECTIONS Make the Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch cake pans (or line with parchment paper). In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes). Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each. Mix in lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Add dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with buttermilk (starting and ending with dry ingredients). Gently fold in the blueberries tossed in flour (this prevents them from sinking to the bottom). Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Make the Frosting: Beat cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until fluffy. Mix in lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a plate and spread a layer of frosting over the top. Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and sides.
