The Incident
Jessica was driving in Ripley County, Missouri, near the Arkansas border, when a teenage driver operating a Ford F150 recklessly took a corner too fast. The truck struck Jessica’s vehicle with significant force, causing a knee injury that required surgery.
Our Approach to the Case
When Jessica came to Cantor Injury Law, she faced not only the challenges of her injury but also the financial stress of navigating the healthcare system without insurance. Mark Cantor and our team quickly stepped in to help her recover her reckless driving accident settlement. We arranged for Jessica to receive care from the best doctors in St. Louis, ensuring she had access to the medical treatment needed to recover from her injuries.
From a legal standpoint, the defense was resistant to accepting responsibility, offering a range of excuses to minimize their liability. Initially, the insurance company offered the policy limits of $250,000 to settle the case. However, recognizing the extent of Jessica’s injuries and the impact the accident had on her life, we refused to accept this amount. We knew Jessica deserved more, and we were determined to fight for it.
The Outcome
Through relentless advocacy and strategic negotiation, Cantor Injury Law successfully secured a $350,000 reckless driving settlement—a significant improvement over the initial offer. This settlement provided Jessica with the financial resources needed to cover her medical expenses, compensate for her pain and suffering, and support her during her recovery.
Client Impact and Recovery
Jessica’s case is a testament to our firm’s commitment to going above and beyond for our clients. By arranging access to top-tier medical care and refusing to settle for less than what she deserved, we ensured Jessica could focus on her recovery without the added stress of financial uncertainty. This favorable settlement not only provided justice but also gave Jessica the stability to move forward with her life.
