Motorcycle-riding Nurse

Client, a motorcycle-riding nurse, was injured when two cars in front of her collided, spewing debris on the road and causing her to crash. Evidence indicated one driver had been distracted by the “chick on the bike”.

The 42-year old client sustained horrible road rash to her legs, arms, chest, as well as ligament damage to her pinkie finger. While time healed most of the damage, it was terribly painful for a number of months, and she missed several weeks from work.

Despite much protest from the insurance company, Attorney Hoffman was able to obtain a settlement of $70,000.00. No lawsuit was ever filed, and the client received a substantial sum of money to compensate her for her injuries just eighteen months after the crash.

Results

Client, a female in her mid-40s, was a passenger in a car driven by her fiancé (now husband) waiting to make a left turn when a large SUV ran a red light and plowed into them at over 40 miles per hour. The Dodge Neon they were riding in was totaled when it spun across the intersection. The damage was so severe it caused the center console of the car to be pushed into the left hip and leg of the client. The client was able to recover $650,000 for the serious and permanent injuries she suffered. Read more
