Case at a glance
- Result: $250,000 Settlement
- Practice: Truck Accidents
- Attorney: Vuk Vujasinovic
Neck and back injuries interrupted her nursing work
A truck driver working for Sweet Express, LLC rear-ended Patience’s car with an 18-wheeler. Patience primarily injured her neck and back and missed substantial time from her nursing job at LBJ Hospital.
She pursued physical therapy in an effort to address the injuries without surgery or more invasive treatment. After her doctors determined that she had done as much physical therapy as possible, she underwent additional procedures on her neck and back to address her pain.
Treatment preceded settlement discussions
Patience finished seeing her doctors before settlement negotiations began.
Vuk negotiated directly with Sweet Express’s defense counsel and resolved the matter without depositions or a mediator, avoiding those expenses.
A $250,000 settlement within a year
The parties settled Patience’s case for $250,000 in less than one year after representation began. The settlement resolved her claim arising from the rear-end collision.
