Intersection Auto Accident

Coming up to an intersection in downtown Chicago in 2018, Nick Popinski was suddenly hit by a driver speeding through a red light, resulting in a serious T-bone accident and leaving him with severe whiplash. Several months after the crash, and after the insurance company denied his claim, Popinski knew he needed to seek legal guidance but was unsure of where to begin. Tim Scott wasn’t, however.

Following a referral from a family member, Popinski brought Tim his police report, which he quickly and efficiently investigated before immediately getting to work.

Throughout the entire legal process, Tim ensured that Popinski knew exactly where his case stood, communicating clearly and professionally, and answering any and all questions Popinski had along the way. Although the insurance company initially contested liability, Tim filed a lawsuit, which resulted in Mr. Popinski recovering the policy limits of the other driver., Tim was able to navigate the judicial system in a way that was completely foreign to Popinski and obtained a policy limits settlement that Popinski was “very satisfied and pleased with.”


Tim kept things on track and never left me in the dark about what the next steps were. He acted as a great coach for me, ensuring I knew the proper legal procedures and everything that was to come, which is something I greatly appreciated.

“Tim knew what he had to do and executed everything with a degree of urgency, yet professionalism,” said Popinski. “If I wanted to talk, Tim would drop everything he was doing and shift his focus to me and my case. He’s there for you no matter what and isn’t only an incredible attorney, but also an incredible person.”
