Our client was stopped in traffic when another driver, failing to slow down, crashed into the back of her vehicle. The impact caused a severe leg hematoma that required two surgeries.
The at-fault driver was clearly distracted, and liability was not disputed. Our attorney negotiated with the insurance company before filing suit, relying on our client’s medical records and a detailed letter outlining future treatment needs.
This preparation helped secure a $275,000 settlement, a significant increase from the original offer of $198,570 made by the insurance company. The settlement fully covered our client’s medical expenses and provided significant additional compensation for her pain and suffering and future care needs.
