Policy limits settlement

$1,000,000 - Policy limits settlement - Fresno

After helping her daughter move to Fresno after Christmas, my client was “t-boned” by a commercial delivery truck at an intersection in Fresno, causing her serious and permanent injuries. She was taken by ambulance to a hospital emergency room and over the course of the next three years had to endure three spine injuries and was unable to work again. 

She was very worried about her future, but, after filing a lawsuit, I was able to resolve her case for the trucking company’s policy limits of $1,000,000.
