Injured Pregnant Passenger from Left Turn – $40,000

In this case, The Accident Guys represented a pregnant passenger involved in a car accident. The accident happened when the defendant made a left turn in front of our car that was driving straight. At 11 weeks pregnant, the collision resulted in back and neck injuries for our client. Fortunately, her unborn child remained unharmed. Due to her pregnancy, her treatment options were limited to a short course of chiropractic therapy, leaving her to endure ongoing pain throughout her pregnancy.

This case presented unique challenges, as the defendant’s insurance company initially disputed liability, blaming the driver of our client’s vehicle for the accident. However, our firm’s persistence led to the defendant’s insurer conceding and paying out their full policy limits of $25,000 promptly after we submitted our demand. Then, we filed an underinsured motorist claim with our client’s own insurance for an additional $15,000, successfully securing a combined settlement of $40,000 for our injured client. It’s important to note that our clients insurances rate do not go up because she made a claim with her own insurance company. In California, it is illegal for your insurance company to raise your rates if you are not at fault for an accident.

This case is a good example of the complexities involved in car accident claims, especially during pregnancy, and demonstrates our commitment to overcoming such challenges. At The Accident Guys, we specialize in providing comprehensive legal assistance in sensitive cases, helping our clients receive a fair outcome in the end.
