Our client was driving through an intersection when another driver pulled out from a stop sign without yielding the right of way. There was no time to avoid the crash. The collision caused serious injuries, including a herniated disc necessitating surgery.
After the accident, the insurance company tried to argue that the client’s herniated disc was caused by normal wear and tear, not the crash. That position changed once the client had surgery, which clearly showed the injury was related to the accident. Even without going to court or bringing in expert witnesses, the facts and medical records made the situation clear.
The case was resolved before a lawsuit was filed, and the insurance company ultimately paid their full policy limits. The case settled for $250,000, allowing the client to move forward without the stress of a long legal battle.
This settlement helped cover all of the client’s medical bills and treatment related to the injury. Most importantly, it gave the client peace of mind and financial stability during recovery. The client was thrilled with the outcome and relieved to have the matter resolved.
