Treasure Coast Car Accident Attorneys Secure Six-Figure Settlement for Injured Client

At Stone & Capobianco, our team of experienced Florida personal injury attorneys recently achieved a six-figure settlement for our client, D.H., who suffered serious injuries in an automobile accident on the Treasure Coast. Despite having pre-existing medical conditions, our client experienced a significant worsening of symptoms due to the crash — requiring extensive medical treatment and ultimately surgical intervention to relieve persistent pain.

The facts of the case were clear: liability was undisputed, and the at-fault driver’s insurance policy included substantial bodily injury coverage. However, as is often the case in personal injury claims, the insurance company initially attempted to minimize the value of our client’s injuries and offered only $15,000.00 in compensation — an amount that did not begin to reflect the severity of her condition or the cost of her medical care.

Refusing to settle for less than our client deserved, our attorneys promptly filed a lawsuit and began preparing the case for trial. Through diligent discovery, expert consultations, and persistent negotiation, we built a strong evidentiary foundation demonstrating the full impact of the accident on our client’s life. Our legal team emphasized how the crash directly exacerbated pre-existing injuries, leading to substantial pain, loss of function, and the need for corrective surgery.

After several months of strategic litigation and negotiation, we successfully secured a six-figure settlement, ensuring our client received full and fair compensation for her injuries, pain and suffering, and long-term recovery needs.

This case is a strong reminder that insurance companies often undervalue legitimate claims, especially when pre-existing medical conditions are involved. However, with the right legal representation, injured victims can overcome these challenges and achieve meaningful results.
