$135 Thousand West Virginia Car Accident

Our client sustained permanent injuries due to the negligence of an intoxicated driver. The client swerved to avoid the collision causing the vehicle to go into a ditch and catch fire. Our client sustained bilateral broken heels, 2nd degree burns and sciatic nerve damage. After months of treatment, our client was diagnosed with Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome which unfortunately does not have a cure as of today. Due to the nature of our client’s injuries, and the limited available insurance coverage, the at fault insurance company tendered its $100,000 limits upon request of policy limits. While the client’s insurance company provided 35,000. Our Paralegal, Beth Arbogast, had to obtain extensive reductions from the health insurance carrier. In the end, almost all liens and bills were written off. Our client netted over fifty percent of the total settlement offer.

Tractor-Trailer in HOV Lane - Fairfax, Virginia

This accident occurred when the Defendant was driving a tractor-trailer in the HOV lane on I-66. He apparently saw a police officer and attempted to quickly switch out of that lane undetected. In doing so, he struck our client’s vehicle. Our client’s car was dragged six hundred (600) feet off the road, striking a jersey wall. The Defendant was cited for the accident and had a suspended license at the time.

As a result of this accident, our client sustained a broken wrist and a medial meniscus tear. Knee surgery was recommended to repair the tear. Our client endured this surgery, and then went to months of physical therapy. He had medical expenses of approximately $37,000.

To obtain the best possible result for our client, in the timeliest manner possible, attorney Simran Rahi represented our client in a mediation. After back-and-forth negotiations, the insurance company offered $135,000.

Uneven Pavement - Premises Liability

In this case, our client was shopping with her friends and family at Chesapeake Marketplace. As she walked towards the store, she stepped on an extremely uneven and broken piece of concrete. She was rushed to the hospital for evaluation.

After extensive testing, she was diagnosed with a Lisfranc fracture dislocation with disruption of the Lisfranc ligament, and an intra-articular fracture of the lateral plantar base of the fourth metatarsal. She eventually required surgery, including an open reduction, and surgical fusion.

She required follow-up physical therapy. Despite enduring this surgery, our client required an additional ankle arthroscopy and removal of deep hardware.

Liability in this case was contested, and suit was filed. American National made no offer prior to suit. However, once suit was filed, the insurance company tendered $130,000. Thus, we were able to settle the matter prior to trial.
