Our client was a passenger in a motor vehicle and was injured when the driver of another motor vehicle (who was pulling a trailer) failed to yield, merged into the lane of traffic of the vehicle in which she was a passenger and caused a collision. As a result of the collision, she sustained a herniated disc in her lumbar spine, which required surgical intervention.
Despite a defense expert witness opinion that all of her symptoms were pre-existing and were not caused by the collision, Attorney Eric Schade was able to resolve her claim for $125,000 before trial at mediation.
