Jim Parrish’s Law Firm Secures $150,000 Virginia Wrongful Death Settlement

Jim Parrish’s team uncovered AAA coverage the family did not know about and obtained its full $100,000 per-person underinsured motorist limit.

MANASSAS, VA, UNITED STATES, September 16, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The Parrish Car Accident & Personal Injury Law Firm, founded by Virginia personal injury attorney Jim Parrish, secured a $150,000 settlement in a wrongful death case arising from a rollover crash on Interstate 77 in Carroll County, Virginia.

The settlement included the full $100,000 per-person limit of an underinsured motorist (UIM) policy issued by AAA that the family did not know was available. Jim Parrish’s team uncovered the additional coverage while representing the personal representative of the woman’s estate.

A Fatal Rollover Crash in Carroll County

The crash occurred on December 16, 2023, while the vehicle was traveling southbound on I-77 in Carroll County. According to the police report summary, the vehicle ran off the left side of the road, struck an embankment and overturned.

The woman was transported by ambulance to the hospital and died approximately two hours after the crash. Her family faced questions about insurance, medical expenses and funeral costs while grieving her death.

An Insurance Offer and Questions About Next Steps

When the family first contacted the firm, they reported that State Farm had offered $50,000 to be placed in an estate account. They needed assistance understanding how to proceed with the claim.

Jim Parrish’s team represented the estate’s personal representative, established representation with State Farm and investigated other potentially available sources of insurance coverage.

That investigation uncovered the additional AAA underinsured motorist policy. The firm pursued the UIM claim and obtained its full $100,000 per-person limit for the family.

How Jim Parrish’s Team Prepared the Case

The firm’s case preparation focused on the police account of the collision, hospital and emergency care information, medical and funeral expense documentation, and the available insurance coverage.

Identifying the AAA policy added a source of recovery that the family had not known was available when it initially sought help with the insurance matter.

Settlement Approved by the Prince William County Circuit Court

The case concluded with a total wrongful death settlement of $150,000, including the full $100,000 per-person UIM policy limit obtained through AAA. The settlement was approved by the Prince William County Circuit Court.

Case results depend on the unique facts and circumstances of each case. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
