Auto vs. Auto

Our client’s vehicle was rear-ended.  Following the accident, our client developed neck and back pain.  After failed conservative treatment, she underwent cervical artificial disk replacement surgery.  While the surgery was successful alleviating most of her accident-related pain, she did develop a mild form of a pain disorder called Complex Regional Pain Syndrome.  In spite of our client’s serious injuries, the Defendant’s insurance company refused to make any settlement offers arguing that the accident was too minor to cause any of our client’s injuries.   After a contentious litigation and shortly before trial , Farar & Lewis, LLP was able to obtain the Defendant’s insurance policy limits of $1 million for our client.
