$775,000 Car Wreck Settlement(s) Alert
August 1 2022
A Sister Trip Gone Wrong
The Ron Bell Injury Lawyers team recently fought to secure settlements for three individuals who were involved in a serious wreck on June 8, 2021 in Albuquerque. The three clients we represented were sisters, two of whom were in town visiting the other. The ladies were gathering to spend a fun day together when they entered an intersection and were struck by a man who failed to stop at a red light. They were t-boned on the back driver side, and all sustained serious injuries. The at-fault driver later admitted he was looking down and distracted at the time of the crash. Each of the three women were immediately transported to the hospital in an ambulance, where they discovered the extent of their injuries caused by the negligent driver.
Two of the three sisters suffered significant injuries. Shirley, who was driving, sustained a fractured sternum, three rib fractures, a fractured pelvis, a fractured tail bone, a fractured ankle and laceration of her scalp. She also required skin grafts for a wound on her leg. One of the other sisters, Eleanor, suffered two breaks in her left leg, broken ribs and a severe open wound on her leg.
The Result
Our team entered into negotiations with the defendant’s insurance company after filing suit. In a little over a year, the Ron Bell team was able to secure a $775,000 for both Shirley and Eleanor for a total of $1,550,000.
Our clients should have been able to enjoy their trip without fear of harm. However, everything changed in an instant because of another driver’s negligence. Our clients’ light was green; they did nothing wrong, so why should they have bear the consequences? Although each of the women’s lives were altered due to the negligent act of the defendant, our team fought to secure compensation and obtain justice for them. Rather than face the insurance company alone, our clients called Ron Bell Injury Lawyers to make their legal process as stress-free as possible. This choice allowed them to focus on what mattered most – recovering.
The Ron Bell Injury Lawyers team is proud to have represented each of the three women involved in the accident. We fight for all of our clients to ensure they receive the compensation they deserve.
