When given this assignment I decided to cover a civil matter involving my father. My father Mr.Lee has been rear ended by a vehicle being driven by Mr. Green. My Father discovered dents to his rear bumper and Broken tail lights. Attached to the windshield was a note with Mr.Greens contact information. On February 17th 2019 My fathers attorney contacted Mr.Green and his attorney regarding the incident. Immediately Mr. Greens attorney expressed his clients want to settle out of court. Being that both parties, Fathers attorney and Mr. Greens lawyer was super nice and aware of my legal assignments, he allowed me to observe the litigation between both parties. The whole experience was very cool. I got to see first hand the behind the scenes negotiations. Ultimately my father will receive compensation for the full amount of the damages, $943 plus an extra $300.
