Settlement in Rear End Collision
Our clients, a 56 and 58 year old couple from Pasco County, were stopped for a red light in Tampa when they were rear ended by a distracted driver. Both husband and wife suffered herniated discs as a result of this accident which resulted in 4 spinal surgeries.

Our client sustained significant herniations in his spine, which resulted in a fusion surgery to his lumbar spine. Ultimately, he lost his job as a result of this collision. The insurance company originally offered only $100,000, which was less than his remaining out of pocket medical expenses. Our office aggressively pursued his case up until the week before trial where we secured $750,000, 7.5 times more than what they were willing to pay.
