Auto v. Auto – Rear End
Our client was the backseat injured passenger of a major rear-end auto accident caused by a commercial vehicle/semi-truck. The colossal impact caused irreparable damage to our client’s vehicle, rendering it a total loss. Aside from severe Collision-induced anxiety, our client suffered a fractured rib, neck injury, back injury, wrist injuries/pain, bilateral knee pain, R foot pain, and cervicogenic headaches.
She was initially rushed by ambulance to the ER and later underwent chiropractic treatment and a pain management evaluation.
Client was recommended MRIs of the cervical spine, lumbar spine, and right knee but firmly declined the imaging.
Fortunately, her rib ultimately healed on its own and with the right conservative treatment and care, She felt physically recovered. Her medical bills were only about $8,000.
After sending our initial demand, we were successful in pushing the initial $56,108 offer up to a $180,000 (nearly 3 times their initial offer) settlement without litigation.
Our client was very happy with the settlement and is going to walk away with a significant amount of the settlement. Her case was settled in less than a year.
