Recently, Portner & Shure
settled a case where two of our clients were rear-ended, leaving them both in
immense pain. In an effort to treat their injuries they presented themselves to
a hospital and followed discharge instructions to be seen by a chiropractor to
ease the rest of their pain. After following their doctor’s treatment plan they
were discharged and left with medical bills equaling over $6,000.00 each. After
extensive negotiations with the liable insurance company, it was clear they
were not willing to offer the settlement amount our clients deserved. Before
going to court we were given offers of $7,700.00 and $6,600.00 to settle our
client’s claims. However, after going to court we received the verdict of $15,000.00
for one, and $10,586.00 for the other. Needless to say, our clients were very
happy with their court award.
