BenGlassLaw Attorneys Recover $100,000 for Accident on Wilson Boulevard in Arlington, VA
In a significant legal victory, an Arlington County jury awarded $100,000 to our client, a Navy captain, following a rear-end collision on Wilson Boulevard, a busy and prominent road in Arlington, VA. Initially, the insurance company only offered $25,000, significantly undervaluing the impact of the accident on our client’s career and health.
Injuries and Impact on Military Career
The collision caused persistent neck pain that plagued our client for over two years. Despite treatment, the pain became a debilitating issue, forcing her to step down from a major command position and ultimately resign from the Navy. This was a direct result of her inability to meet the physical fitness requirements essential for her role. Her medical expenses totaled about $4,000, but the true cost of her injuries was far greater in terms of her professional life and personal well-being.
Legal Strategy and Jury Verdict
As the trial approached, State Farm admitted liability for the crash but continued to lowball the compensation until the day before trial, reflecting a common tactic used by insurance companies to pressure victims into settling for less than they deserve. We firmly rejected their last-minute offer and proceeded to trial, where we successfully demonstrated the profound impact the accident had on our client’s career and health.
The Importance of Trial-Ready Legal Representation
This case underscores the crucial importance of having a determined and trial-ready legal team. Insurance companies often withhold fair settlements until they are compelled by a court to pay up. At BenGlassLaw, we are committed to fighting tirelessly for our clients, ensuring they receive the compensation they deserve. Our willingness to go to trial and our expertise in personal injury law are key to our success in securing favorable outcomes for our clients.
