$50,000 T-Bone Settlement

The wife of a U.S. Postal worker was injured in a car crash when her vehicle was t-boned by a careless driver who blew a stop sign. The 40-year old client was taken to the hospital by ambulance as a precaution. She was initially diagnosed with cervical sprain and multiple bumps and bruises.

Our client’s physician recommended a course of physical therapy and an evaluation by an orthopedic surgeon. The orthopedist did not recommend further treatment, but our client continued to have problems, including pain to her chest. Her physician later diagnosed a cyst in her chest that probably was caused by the seat belt during the crash. Surgery was required to remove the cyst. Total medical bills exceeded $16,000, and our client was out of work for one week. She had significant pain for at least a year and subsequently made good recovery. After 18 months, she continued to feel symptoms of the injury she was involved in activities.
