Auto v. Commercial Truck – $162,500

Published: 12/19/2022

Our client was practically run over by a commercial truck on the street (not highway, interesting enough), rendering her vehicle a total loss.

Fortunately, client received conservative treatment was recommended imaging and underwent a facet injection. Her total meds were under $50,000.

During negotiations, our team focused on the property damage and the obvious psychological impact an motor vehicle accident of this magnitude would have on anybody (regardless of how young the client is or how “well” she’s physically recovering). Once we mentioned that we can’t wait to put these photos and our empathetic client in front of a jury and see what a reasonable juror thinks, the at fault party’s Insurance offered $162,500 to settle the case without wanting to us to fight them in court.

Our client was so moved and “speechless” (her words :)) with the speed and amount of settlement. We’re currently working on stretching her net comp as far as we can, it’s going to be a sizable amount.
