Trucking accident with car

Attorney Heather Spellman and the staff at d’Oliveira & Associates recently acquired a $125,000 settlement for our client who was hit by an 18-wheeler. The injuries she sustained caused her long-lasting pain, required surgery, and necessitated extensive physical therapy. Upon being contacted, the staff at d’Oliveira immediately began assisting by explaining options and next steps.

Attorney Heather Spellman stated, “Our firm recently resolved a case on behalf of a client who was struck by an 18-wheeler and suffered serious injuries, including a significant injury to the right shoulder, ultimately requiring surgery. In addition to the surgical injury, our client also experienced an aggravation of a pre-existing condition, which significantly impacted their daily life and recovery. From the very beginning, we worked closely with our client to ensure they received the care they needed. We coordinated their treatment, helped obtain a permanency rating from their treating orthopedic, and built a strong medical record to support the full extent of the injuries. Although the insurance company initially attempted to minimize the claim, we knew the truth was far different. This was a case involving a serious and lasting injury, not one with only a few months of discomfort. We stood firm, filed a lawsuit, and presented evidence of surgical intervention and long-term consequences of an aggravated pre-existing condition, and after months of aggressive negotiation and persistent advocacy, we secured a settlement that fairly compensated our client for their pain, permanent impairment, and future limitations. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, do not settle for less than what you deserve. Call us today for a free consultation. We are here to fight for you.”
