ST. LOUIS – A woman alleges she was injured in an accident in St. Charles caused by an uninsured motorist and an insurance company has failed to pay her a reasonable amount.

Kimberly Spann filed a complaint on Dec. 27 in the St. Louis Circuit Court against Allstate Insurance Co.

According to the complaint, the plaintiff alleges that on Jan. 20, 2014, she was injured in a motor vehicle accident on U.S. 67 in St. Charles when an unknown car suddenly cut in front of her vehicle, causing her to brake and lose control of her vehicle. She alleges she sustained serious injuries including a right radial shaft fracture, a left open talus fracture and a fracture at C-2 and incurred medical bills of more than $300,000. 

At the time of the incident, she was covered by uninsured motorist coverage under the policy issued by defendant in Carolyn Spann's name.

The plaintiff holds Allstate Insurance Co. responsible because the defendant allegedly has failed and refused to pay her a reasonable amount due under the policy.

The plaintiff requests a trial by jury and seeks damages between $25,000 and $75,000, plus costs and all further relief as the court deems just, proper and equitable. She is represented by Robert S. Marlin and Sarah H. Hale of Ray B. Marglous PC in Clayton.

St. Louis Circuit Court case number 1822cc11918
