In this motor vehicle accident case, our client sustained serious cervical spine injuries that ultimately required a fusion surgery. Despite the severity of the injury, the case presented several challenges—including a police report noting that our client was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the collision, a fact often used by insurers to reduce or deny claims.
Undeterred, our team conducted a thorough pre-litigation investigation and built a strong medical and liability narrative tying the injury directly to the crash. We effectively neutralized the seatbelt issue by focusing on causation and the clear necessity of surgical intervention.
Before a lawsuit was even filed, we secured the full policy limits from the at-fault driver’s insurance carrier. This result not only spared our client the stress of prolonged litigation but also delivered the financial support needed for continued recovery.
