Major Impact, T-bone Collision – $100,000

Published: 10/30/2024

This case involved a **major impact** T-bone collision that caused our client’s vehicle to flip over and land upside down, leaving her trapped in the driver’s seat. The force of the impact was severe, leading to significant injuries that required extensive medical treatment. Following the accident, our client underwent a nine-month course of treatment, which included a cervical spine PRP injection, a lumbar spine PRP injection, and bilateral C3-C6 facet block injections. The total medical expenses for this treatment amounted to $53,039, with no Howell reductions applied.

During settlement negotiations, the insurance initially offered $53,743.29. Through persistent discussions, this amount was gradually increased to $60,000, then $71,596.79, and finally $76,000. Despite these incremental increases, we remained firm on seeking the full policy limits due to the severity of the accident and the impact on our client’s health. Ultimately, we successfully secured a settlement of $100,000, representing the full policy limits. This outcome reflects the serious nature of the rollover accident and ensures our client received fair compensation for the injuries sustained.
