Our client was stopped and prepared to make a right-hand turn, when the driver behind her took his foot off the brake and rear-ended her vehicle. The insurance company refused to make a settlement offer and argued that the accident was too minor to have caused any injuries.
Attorney James Carlson filed a lawsuit against the other driver and took the deposition of the client’s treating physician, which proved she sustained a tear in her shoulder requiring surgery as a result of the accident. The case ended up settling for the insurance company’s $100,000 policy limits.
