2 cars in a rear-end collision.

Recently, d’Oliveira and Associates, Attorney Robin Gouveia obtained a $126,000 settlement for our client, who was sitting in her parked car when the at-fault driver hit her car. Our client suffered injuries to her shoulder and chest, which required surgery and physical therapy. As a result of the accident, our client continues to suffer from residual pain in her shoulder.

Attorney Robin Gouveia stated, “The insurer was quite difficult and would not pay fair value on this case, so we proposed submitting the matter to a binding arbitration.  This was suggested as an alternative to court litigation.   The insurer agreed and we were able to schedule an arbitration hearing.  After the evidence was presented and arguments made, the arbitrator awarded a fair, full value of the claim.  The matter was able to be resolved much faster than if court litigation had been filed.”
