A careless driver failed to yield and crashed into our client's car. She hurt her lower back, required months of treatment and had to undergo surgery.
We secured a $400,000 settlement, five times her medical bills. The initial offer before we filed a lawsuit? Just $46,000.
How we maximized her recovery:
✔️ Pre-Existing Condition: Proved the crash aggravated normal age-related arthritis that had never caused her pain before
✔️ Medical Evidence: Secured testimony from her treating surgeon tying the need for back surgery directly to the wreck
✔️ Filed Suit: Rejected the low offer, filed a lawsuit, secured $100,000 State Farm policy limits
✔️ Found Additional Coverage: After coverage through her personal insurance policy was denied due to a notice issue, we identified $300,000 in uninsured motorist coverage through her employer's Travelers Insurance policy, because she was driving a company vehicle at the time of the crash
