Recently, d’Oliveira & Associates Attorney Heather Spellman negotiated a $165,000 settlement for our client who was injured in a car accident. Our client was stopped when he was rear-ended by a negligent driver, resulting in injuries to his neck, head, chest, and heart. Due to the accident, our client was unable to work for several months and has consistent soreness in his neck, elbow and arm.
Attorney Heather Spellman said, “When our client came to us after suffering serious injuries, the initial offer on the table was insultingly low, barely scratching the $20,000 range. But we knew the truth, that our client had suffered a permanent injury that would affect him for the rest of his life. We never backed down. From the beginning, we pushed back hard against the insurance company’s attempt to undervalue the claim. We gathered the medical records, documented the long-term impact, obtained a permanency rating, and stood firm on the fact that this was not a minor case. When it became clear that the insurance company was not taking his case seriously, we filed suit, and that changed everything. After fighting every step of the way, we were able to secure a settlement well into the six figures. The final outcome wasn’t luck, it was the result of knowing the law, knowing the medicine, and refusing to let our client be treated unfairly.”
