Our client, a Pennsylvania woman, was rear-ended while completely stopped in traffic waiting for the car ahead of her to turn. The impact thrust her forward and back, causing her to strike the back of her head against the seat. Despite minor visible vehicle damage, the consequences were anything but minor.
She went on to develop chronic post-concussion syndrome, daily headaches, neck and lumbar disc herniations, vision dysfunction requiring therapy, and significant anxiety and depression. She was ultimately unable to return to work.
The defense denied liability outright, argued our client was partially at fault for stopping in the road, and pre-existing medical history as the real cause of her symptoms. We pushed back at every turn, marshaling treating physician records, a forensic psychological expert, neurological evaluations, and family witness testimony that painted a clear picture of how dramatically this crash changed her life.
Outcome:
Our attorney, Todd Sailer, secured a $1,300,000 settlement – a result that reflects the severity of our client’s injuries, the long-term loss of her career, and the permanent impact on her daily life.
