If you are ever chosen to serve as a juror in a personal injury trial, the law forbids lawyers and judges from telling you the following: 1. In almost all cases, the real defendant in a personal injury trial is the insurance company not the defendant named in the Statement of Claim. For example, in John v. Doe, the real defendant is the company that insured the vehicle that Doe was driving at the time of the accident. However, at trial the Defendant will always be referred ...to as Doe. 2. The defendant that is named in the Statement of Claim will not contribute any money toward the compensation awarded by the jury. The compensation is all paid by the insurance company (including any legal fees or costs associated with an appeal. 3. Juries are not told how much insurance coverage the defendant has. In the vast majority of personal injury cases, the defendant will have at least $1,000,000.00 in insurance coverage. 4. For motor vehicle accident cases, any compensation awarded by a jury for pain and suffering or loss of enjoyment of life under $127,000.00 will be reduced by $38,000.00. In other words, if a jury awards a plaintiff $100,000.00 for pain and suffering, he or she will only be left with $62,000.00. 5. Any compensation awarded by a jury for pain and suffering or loss of enjoyment of life that is under $38,000.00 will be reduced to zero. For example, a jury that awards a plaintiff $37,000.00 for pain and suffering will not be told that the plaintiff will receive none of that compensation. 6. The insurance company gets to choose the doctors that it will send the plaintiff to. Many times, these doctors carry a pro-insurance company bias. https://www.gsbrar.law/what-they-dont-tell-juries/

When I sat down to finalize the values that would guide GS Brar Law, they came to me within 10 minutes. The speed made me sure that I was missing something and so I ended up spending a week annoying my wife, Gurlin, about them more then I'd like to admit (God bless her patience). At the end, I realized that the values hadn't come to me quickly after all. Getting to the point where I could put these values on paper within 10 minutes was a culmination of 3 decades of amazing me...ntors and friends that have always pushed me to be better. There is no better investment than surrounding yourself with good people. Secondly, I can't understate the value of being involved in the community and taking the time to advance good causes. Contributing to the success of something much larger than yourself is not only good for your soul, but will give you skills that you never thought you'd pick up along the way. We tend to think of community service as a giving exercise without realizing how much we truly get in return. Without 8 years of Experience Sikhi and all the highs, lows, successes, and failures that come along with helping manage a charity, I wouldn't be half the person I am today and nor would the values behind GS Brar Law have been so clear. In short, while the values themselves took 10 minutes to finalize, the journey there took 3 decades. Looking forward to serving you all via GS Brar Law in the months and years to come.
