At Dordick Law Corporation, we fight for justice in every form, especially when injuries are downplayed and delays and legal obstacles complicate the road to recovery.
In a recent case, we secured a $1,000,000 settlement for a California pedestrian who was lawfully crossing an intersection when she was struck by a vehicle. Although the driver admitted fault, the defense challenged the severity of the injuries and the need for treatment.
A Delayed Response Still Deserves Full Recovery
When someone is injured, it is not uncommon for symptoms to appear gradually. In this case, treatment was delayed due to workers’ compensation procedures, which added further difficulty to our client’s recovery process. These types of delays are often used by insurance companies and defense teams to downplay the legitimacy of a claim.
We pushed back against these tactics and worked with professionals to fully document the extent of our client’s experience. Through detailed investigation and strong advocacy, we demonstrated how the incident affected her daily life and long-term well-being.
Why This Case Matters
This case serves as an important reminder:
- Injuries do not always show up right away
- Delayed treatment does not mean the harm is less serious
- Pedestrians have legal protections, even when injured while working
At Dordick Law Corporation, we understand the challenges clients face when hurt and their pain is questioned. That is why we work tirelessly to ensure the truth is uncovered and our clients are compensated fairly.
