$300,000 Settlement For Illinois Motorcycle Accident
Not long ago, a man was leisurely riding his motorcycle in Quincy, Illinois when he was suddenly struck by another vehicle, who apparently ran a red light. An Adams County ambulance transported the injured victim to Blessing Hospital where he spent a week being observed and treated for various injuries, including an ankle fracture, intracranial hemorrhage, pulmonary emboli, lacerations, and contusions. This motorcycle accident and the injuries he sustained required months of follow-up appointments and six weeks of physical therapy, which justifiably put a considerable financial burden on him. Therefore, in hopes to alleviate his substantial losses, he decided to contact the experienced Illinois motorcycle accident attorneys at Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, P.C. to go over his legal options.
Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, P.C. immediately began working and contacted the other driver’s insurer, who originally disputed their liability. Undeterred, the experienced legal team continued to represent their client’s best interests and started negotiating with the insurer. This led to the insurer’s admission of liability and an initial settlement offer. Upon review, the amount presented was not sufficient for the client’s needs and Staver Accident Injury Lawyers, P.C. fervently fought for every possible dollar on behalf of their client. This culminated with all the parties involved agreeing to a $300,000 settlement and the client was pleased to know that he could now sufficiently recover from his injuries without financial concern.

Man Rear-Ended at Stop Light – $391,424
We recently helped a 38-year-old man who was hurt in a Chicago car accident. Waiting for the light to change at 179th and LaGrange in Tinley Park, he was rear-ended and sustained severe spinal injuries. Upon going to the doctor, he was diagnosed with a herniated disc in his cervical spine, which would require future fusion surgery to treat and repair the disc. A costly procedure, the man wondered how he was going to manage time away from work, paying for surgery, and ongoing medical expenses while recovering from the pain and trauma of the accident. He hired Chicago personal injury lawyer Jared Staver to handle his auto accident case. Before the trial, the insurance company for the driver whose negligence caused the accident offered to settle the case for $110,000. Since this amount would not sufficiently cover the damages the client suffered, Jared rejected the offer and worked to bring this case to trial. He achieved a policy award that exceeded the other driver’s insurance policy limit of $250,000. This happened because Jared collected directly against the insurance company for failing to settle the case before trial within their policy limits. The client was ultimately awarded $391,424.16 for the pain and suffering he experienced because of the rear-end accident.
