Confidential Settlement Traumatic Brain Injury

Plaintiff, a doctor at a major local hospital, was hit in the rear while stopped at a light. Our client was released from the Emergency Room with a diagnosis of a neck sprain. The defendant’s insurance company dismissed our client’s complaints of headaches, dizziness, nausea, insomnia and forgetfulness as “insignificant”, and took a “no pay” position. Our client’s symptoms continued to deteriorate. Our client was able to function in her day to day capacities, but unlike prior to the accident, struggled to do so. Our firm recognized that our client was suffering from traumatic brain injury (TBI). Over the course of the next year, we gathered evidence from witnesses from our client’s personal and professional life, and were able to show how serious our client’s TBI was. After presenting our case, the defendant’s insurance carrier and their attorneys did a “180” and paid their entire policy!
