$313,000 jury verdict for neck injuries after motor vehicle crash

Steve Caya obtained a jury verdict of $313,000 for a client injured in a motor vehicle crash. The insurer’s initial offer to resolve the claim was $27,000. The final offer on the eve of trial was $100,000.

At trial, the insurer claimed any injuries from the crash resolved after six to eight weeks and the client’s ongoing issues were due to pre-existing issues. Steve Caya’s presentation convinced a twelve person jury otherwise.

What to know before filing a car accident lawsuit

Wisconsin accident claims operate under a shared fault law. This means each person is held responsible for a portion of the liability in the accident. If you weren't fully at fault for the crash, you could be eligible to receive compensation for your injuries either through a settlement or lawsuit. Here's what you need to know before starting the process:

• Can I sue for my car accident injury?
• How to file a car accident lawsuit in Wisconsin
• How long you have to file after the car accident
• How long a car accident lawsuit will take
• Whether you need an attorney for your car accident claim
• What your car accident injuries are worth
