Car Accident-minivan-knee surgery
Case description: Automobile accident
Court/dates: Virginia Beach Circuit Court 2003
Outcome: Settlement of $350,000.00
Staff: James C. Lewis, Attorney
What happened: Plaintiff was the driver of a minivan taking his wife home for lunch when the defendant driver turned left in front of him failing to yield the right of way. The resulting collision fractured the Plaintiff's left kneecap and caused numerous other abrasions and contusions. The Plaintiff required an extensive surgical repair of his left knee including the implantation of extensive hardware. This later caused significant pain and several additional surgeries were required to remove the hardware. The Plaintiff was an automobile mechanic and lost a large amount of time from work.
Legal strategy: Because this was a case of clear liability, a lawsuit was filed on behalf of the Plaintiff immediately. For this reason, the Plaintiff's trial date and release from medical care were very close together allowing the case to settle quickly.
The results: The case was settled for $350,000.00 without the necessity of a trial.

FAQs
Car & Motorcycle Accidents
- I've been hurt in a car wreck and the insurance company for the other driver has called me to give a recorded statement. Should I do it?
- Should I use my regular health insurance to pay for the medical care I need as a result of a car accident?
- Our new clients in car accident cases often asked, "Can I accept a check which has been offered to me for my car repairs or will that mess up my claim for injuries and medical bills?"
- Why shouldn't I just take a quick settlement for whatever the car insurance company for the other driver will pay me?
- What do I do if the at-fault driver's car insurance is not returning my calls or dragging its feet after a Virginia car accident with injuries?
