Recent Case Settlement Examples

Below are some examples of how our personal injury lawyers fight hard for our clients in Sarasota and succeed in obtaining a significantly higher settlement amount than the insurance company’s initial offer.

$150,000/Car Accident/2023

Our client, who was 34 years old at the time of his accident and worked for an excavation company, was traveling south on Tamiami Trail on July 19, 2022. At that time, the defendant negligently turned directly into the path and collided with our client’s vehicle. The defendant was cited by the police for improper change of lane/pulling out in front of a vehicle.

Shortly after the accident, our client began experiencing pain primarily in his neck and right shoulder, and sought treatment at a nearby clinic. After a course of therapy, he underwent an MRI scan of the shoulder which revealed inflammation and bursitis and was also suspicious for a tendon tear. Due to the continued pain, our client was referred to an orthopedic surgeon who recommended a procedure known as an arthroscopy to relieve the impingement in his shoulder. Our client opted for the surgery, and it was successful in relieving his pain.

We prepared a comprehensive demand package seeking compensation for our client from the defendant’s insurance company. The company fought us by arguing, among other things, that the side-to-side impact in the accident would not have resulted in a shoulder injury. We responded by pointing to the fact that our client had no history of prior shoulder problems and that his pain began right after the accident. Ultimately, through negotiation, we were able to convince the insurer to pay our client $150,000.00. We felt this was a solid result in the case, and our client was very satisfied with the outcome and with our representation.
