Low Ball Offer, Rear End Accident – $100,000
Our client was rear-ended while returning to the office from an off-site meeting. The at-fault driver admitted to being distracted. While the property damage appeared minimal, the impact of the collision was anything but minor. Our client was eight months pregnant at the time and was left shaken, frightened, and deeply concerned for the safety of her unborn child.
Following the crash, she sustained injuries to her hip, mid-back, and lower back. She sought treatment from orthopedic specialists and was also evaluated for stress-related conditions caused by the trauma of the accident, including jaw locking. Due to her advanced pregnancy and her priority of delivering a healthy baby, her treatment options were limited.
Despite medical bills totaling approximately $21,000, the insurance company initially attempted to minimize her claim, offering just $31,000 prior to litigation.
After The Accident Guys filed suit and our client courageously shared the truth of her experience during her deposition, the insurance company recognized the severity of her pain, emotional distress, and limitations. As a result, they tendered the full policy limits of $100,000—without the need for mediation or trial.
Our client was grateful and relieved to achieve justice without enduring a jury trial. This case serves as a powerful reminder that serious injuries and real pain can exist even when vehicle damage looks small. It also demonstrates the value of persistence, preparation, and consistent litigation by The Accident Guys, who fight to ensure their clients are heard and fully compensated.
