$511,000 Recovered in Hit-and-Run, Rear-End Collision

$511,000 Recovered in Hit-and-Run, Rear-End Collision

In this car wreck case, our client was driving south on Cobb Parkway. As he came to a stop, the driver behind our client, who was following too closely, failed to stop and slammed into the rear of our client’s vehicle. After crashing into our client’s car, the at-fault driver fled the scene. He was later identified and held accountable for his actions.

After the wreck, our client called 911 and reported the wreck to police, who clearly determined the fleeing driver to be at fault. 

The impact of the collision caused immediate pain to our client’s right shoulder, lower back, neck, and head, which he reported to the police officer who responded to his 911 call. Our client went immediately to a local hospital's emergency department for treatment, where he was diagnosed with a neck muscle strain, a thoracic myofascial strain, a contusion of the right tibia, and a closed head injury. These injuries required multiple epidural steroid injections, physical therapy, and a serious neck surgery.

Personal injury attorney Bill Daniel took this case for our client and was able to successfully recover a $511,000 settlement from the at-fault driver’s insurance company and underinsured motorist carrier.
