In this case, our 17-year-old client was driving her car and traveling through an intersection with a green light. At the same time, another driver attempted to make a left turn out in front of our client’s oncoming vehicle. As a result, our client crashed into the side of the at-fault vehicle and sustained serious property damage and injuries.
Emergency responders arrived at the scene and transported our client to the hospital for further treatment and evaluation. At the hospital, our client underwent X-rays, which showed a severely displaced fracture of her right wrist. She underwent a reduction procedure to set the bone, was placed in a splint, and was recommended to follow up with an orthopedic surgeon for further treatment.
Our client underwent surgery to repair her wrist just days after the crash. The procedure required the placement of a metal plate and screws to stabilize the fractured bone. Following surgery, she continued treatment through follow-up appointments and physical and occupational therapy.
Throughout her recovery, our client experienced pain, stiffness, weakness, and reduced range of motion in her wrist and hand. Even as the fracture healed, she continued to work through rehabilitation to regain strength and function.
Attorney Bill Daniel took on this case for our client and secured a $150,000 settlement on her behalf.
