$250,000 settlement for a surgically repaired broken clavicle in a car crash
Car accident results in $250K in compensation for victim with serious shoulder injury
The client suffered a broken clavicle and other related contusions and injuries as a result of a motor vehicle accident.
The matter resolved without the need for a lawsuit for the sum of $250,000.
Shoulder injuries, including broken bones and soft tissue injuries, can get worse over time because the shoulder joint is complex and the most mobile joint in the body. Accepting a lowball offer from the insurance company right after the accident could leave you stuck with unpaid medical bills down the road if complications from your injury arise.
Broken bones take serious recovery time
The time you lose in recovering from an car accident that wasn't your fault--and the money you lose--can be covered in the right cases. File a claim and get a settlement: you deserve compensation for your pain and suffering.
