Motorcyclist Receives $2.75 Million Settlement

On a sunny September day, our client, a Waukesha County woman, was riding her Harley-Davidson motorcycle to work.  She was less than a mile from her home when unexpectedly a truck made a left-hand turn from a side street directly into her path, causing a horrific accident.  She was rushed to the hospital and diagnosed with extensive life-threatening injuries.  Despite receiving excellent medical care from her doctors, she was left with significant permanent injuries.

The insurance company, which insured a major trucking company, consistently denied responsibility for the accident based upon liability and claimed that the driver of the truck was actually an independent contractor.  Attorney Jason F. Abraham took on this fight, filed a lawsuit, defeated several insurance company motions to have the case dismissed, won an appeal, and finally negotiated a settlement.  As a result of her injuries, the client incurred medical expenses of approximately $750,000.  Attorney Abraham was successfully able to settle the case for $2.75 Million.  Thankfully, our client was able to receive a life-changing settlement that will enable her to move forward in a meaningful way in her life. 

Awarded: $2,750,000.00
