Examples of Abrasion Injury Case Settlement Values in Florida

Case 1: $85,000 Settlement After Motorcycle Crash Causes Abrasions and Fractures

While crossing an intersection, our client was hit on the driver’s side by a speeding motorcycle. The motorcyclist died on impact, and our client’s car was totaled. At the hospital, he underwent painful glass removal and treatment for abrasions, along with care for chest pain and a fractured sternum. Further imaging revealed a torn shoulder tendon and labrum tear.

Though he was unable to undergo surgery, we negotiated aggressively with three different insurance providers and secured their full policy limits, resulting in an $85,000 settlement for his abrasions and related orthopedic injuries.

Case 2: $100,000 Settlement for Scooter Rider Thrown Onto Pavement with Facial Abrasions

At just 19 years old, our client was riding her electric scooter when she was hit by a car that failed to yield while turning. She was thrown onto the car’s hood and then slammed into the pavement. Emergency crews rushed her to the hospital where she was diagnosed with a facial fracture, abrasions on the left side of her face, a partial ACL tear, and herniated spinal discs.

We prepared a detailed demand and convinced the at-fault party’s insurer to pay its $100,000 policy limit. We also negotiated her medical bills down significantly, allowing her to keep more of her abrasion injury settlement and begin moving forward with her recovery.

Case 3: $160,000 Settlement for Airbag-Induced Abrasions Injuries

A 26-year-old petition circulator was driving on Martin Luther King Street when a negligent lane change by another driver forced her vehicle off the road and into a fire hydrant. The crash caused her airbags to deploy, resulting in painful abrasions and burns to her right arm and elbow. She also suffered neck, back, and wrist injuries that required ongoing treatment.

Despite the insurance company’s initial low offer of $65,000, our legal team presented strong medical evidence proving the seriousness and potential permanence of her injuries. Ultimately, the insurer agreed to a $160,000 settlement, fairly compensating our client for her abrasion injuries and related trauma.

Case 4: $250,000 Settlement After Drunk Driver Causes Abrasions

While driving with her family, our client swerved to avoid a head-on crash with a dump truck that had drifted into her lane. Although she avoided the direct impact, her car was sideswiped and forced off the road. She suffered multiple rib fractures, a fractured vertebra, abrasions and contusions, and later developed post-traumatic stress disorder.

After we proved the dump truck driver was under the influence, the insurance company agreed to pay $250,000 within the deadline we set. This swift resolution delivered justice and full compensation for her abrasion injuries and serious trauma.
