Recently d’Oliveira & Associates attorney, D. Robin Gouveia, obtained a combined $100,000 settlement from Progressive and Farmers for a Brockton, MA woman, who was injured in a rear-end auto accident. Our client was stopped in traffic when another vehicle struck her from behind. The injuries she sustained from this car accident required her to have invasive steroid injections and undergo multiple forms of therapy.
Attorney D. Robin Gouveia said, “Due to the severity of the injuries, we determined and demanded the liability policy limits very early. We then sought Underinsured Motorist limits from the client’s personal policy and demanded these limits as well. With both policies offered, we negotiated medical bills and liens to put a package together to maximize the net recovery to the injured victim.”
