$425,000 (policy limits plus) – Motorcycle accident with orthopedic injuries to legs and shoulder

Posted: January 10, 2016

Our client was severely injured when an elderly driver turned left in front of him.  He was a young professional in his late 20’s at the time, and was forced to undergo multiple surgeries and extensive hospitalizations.  The challenge we faced was there was simply very limited insurance of only $125,000.  Further, the health insurance subrogation claim was well over $400,000 – which would have completely depleted any recovery for him.  Through extensive litigation against the at fault driver in which he ultimately contributed $300,000 from his personal bank account, and months of negotiations with the health insurance subrogation company, we managed to obtain $425,000 for our client and reduce the health subrogation claim by 70%.
