Car Wreck Accident
Our client had two prior back surgeries. She was driving near I-35 in Waco, Texas. She had a green light and proceeded into the intersection. Another driver ran a red light and struck her vehicle. The collision aggravated her prior back injuries. The other driver was insured by GEICO. GEICO claimed her injuries were unrelated to the car wreck and only offered $8,784.04. We filed suit and settled the case for $57,514.20. A contingent fee charged on the successful recovery resulted in attorney’s fees of $22,504.80 and $2,942.53 in expenses, which were reimbursed by the client out of the gross settlement amount. Net to Client: $27,047.59
