We just finalized a $1 million Policy Limits Settlement for our client that was injured while hiking. Our client was on her way back down after hiking a well known local trail. On her descent, she was run over by a man riding his mountain bike down the trail. The impact sent our client flying down the hillside, causing her to tear both of her shoulders.
Our client required surgery on one of her shoulders and a significant amount of treatment on the other. Her recovery was painful and took her away from many of the activities she loves. Our office tried to settle this case without having having to file a lawsuit but the insurance company refused to be reasonable. After filing suit and taking depositions, the insurance company agreed to pay their full $1 million dollar policy limit.
