A woman was riding as a passenger in Topeka when the driver lost control on a slick road and the vehicle hydroplaned. Although she was not driving, she suffered serious injuries in the crash, including multiple fractured ribs, neck and lower back injuries, pain and tingling in her right leg, and a pinched nerve in her back.
Our client continued to receive medical treatment and was referred for consultations to determine whether she may need back surgery. Because she was a passenger, we pursued a claim through the driver's insurance policy to help cover the impact of her injuries and ongoing medical needs.
Our car accident attorney who led this case, stayed in regular contact with the insurance adjuster to make sure they understood the severity of our client's injuries and the growing cost of her treatment. We also requested an estimate for the potential cost of surgery so we could fully document her future medical needs and work toward resolving the case while she was still treating.
Ultimately, we secured the full $100,000 insurance policy limit for our client after a Topeka car crash, giving her access to the maximum amount of compensation available under the policy as she continued her recovery.
