On July 12, 2023, Daryl Derryberry and Craig Zips obtained a $352,874 jury verdict in a car crash case where STATE FARM had offered their injured client $25,000 (less than the client's medical bills) and then increased that offer to $82,000 the Friday before trial was to start on Monday. Daryl and Craig's client sustained neck and back injuries and his treating neurosurgeon testified at trial that future surgeries were medically required for his neck and back. STATE FARM hired a doctor to look at the MRIs (no exam of the patient) and testify that the surgeries were not necessary. STATE FARM paid this "hired gun" doctor $42,000 in exchange for his testimony. STATE FARM's tactic apparently did not impress the jury.

STATE FARM paid Daryl and Craig's client the verdict amount plus all prejudgment interest and costs in the total amount of approximately $383,000.00. Daryl and Craig's client had this to say about Daryl and Craig's representation of him:

"Daryl and his team worked tirelessly on my behalf. I was amazed at the level of professionalism they showed me. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his associates. If you want a team of professionals handling your case, you need to call Daryl. He doesn't have to do commercials or put it on billboards, THEY ARE THAT GOOD!!"

ALL insurance companies want to pay injured victims as little as possible regardless of the victims injuries. If you are ever on a jury please remember that there is INSURANCE AVAILABLE TO SATISFY THE AMOUNT A JURY AWARDS AN INJURED VICTIM. The insurance company wants you to think the person or business that is responsible for the crash or incident has to pay the verdict amount out of their own pocket. That is not true. The negligent person or business who caused the injuries has liability insurance for their car or business to cover those types of losses.

Insurance companies are evil.

Insurance companies are evil.

Insurance companies prey on vulnerable Texans. After a wreck, they often swoop in and try to get you to settle on the cheap before you know the full extent of your damages and medical costs. Stop this dangerous predatory practice!

DZW recently settled a case for our 18 wheeler driver client after more than two (2) years of litigation in a historically conservative West Texas county. Our client was operating an 18 wheeler and was turning left into a business when a driver of another commercial vehicle attempted to pass him on the left, in an oncoming lane of traffic and with limited visibility (dark). The other driver slammed into the 18 wheeler's driver side door. Our client sustained injuries requiring surgery. The case settled for $2,200,000.00 and our client recovered in excess if $1,000,000.00 after payment of medical bills (in excess of $200,000.00), case expenses ($47,844.49) and attorneys' fees ($880,000.00).

DZW recently resolved an 18 wheeler crash lawsuit that was filed in a conservative West Texas county on behalf of its client who was injured in a read-end crash.

Our client was rear ended at highway speeds by an 18 wheeler. The driver of the 18 wheeler contended that our client inexplicably cut him off, slammed on his brakes and caused the crash. Our client sustained herniated discs in his neck and a torn rotator cuff both of which required surgery. The Defendant and its insurer paid $1,875,000 to settle our client's claims. After payment of attorney's fees ($750,000), reimbursement of expenses ($63,479.29), repayment of loans ($88,000) and repayment of medical bills ($187,088.72), our client received $786,431.99.

Our client had the following to say about DZW's representation of him in this case in his google business review:

"The best lawyer ever, exceeding all my expectations.
Derryberry in my opinion is the new "Lincoln Lawyer" if you need a top notch lawyer Derryberry Zip Wade, LLC will not let you down."

We continue to work hard and spare no expense in pursuing claims against corporate entities and their employees who violate basic safety rules in causing injuries to our clients.

Two recent clients had the following testimonial about DZW's representation in her personal injury case.

Yasmin Taylor

After my accident, I was fortunate enough to find Mr. Derryberry and his staff to represent me. They took care of all of my legal matters, kept me in the loop, and kept me aware and informed on all of my options. He and his staff were very friendly, welcoming and patient with me while I navigated the legal realm. Whenever I felt like I was in over my head they would explain all of the legal jargon in way that was easy to understand and helped put my mind at ease. I highly recommend Mr. Derryberry and his associates as legal representatives!
