Our client was driving through an intersection with a green light when another driver ignored a flashing yellow and T-boned his vehicle. The crash left our client with a broken arm that required surgery and the placement of permanent hardware, resulting in lifelong discomfort and pain. He was hospitalized, missed time from work, and faced significant adjustments in his daily life due to his injuries.
The insurance company initially offered $62,500, but our attorney took the time to tell our client’s story in a way that made adjusters truly understand how the accident changed his life. He had to make adjustments to simple things like lifting his arm or sleeping on his side, which is harder than people may think.
“We told the ‘human story’ so the insurance adjusters truly understood what our client was going through.”
- Attorney Oscar Espinoza
That approach made all the difference, leading to a settlement of $125,000, double the original offer. Our client’s medical bills were around $17,000, so he was able to pocket the rest of the settlement.
