A man from the Dallas-Fort Worth area is now able to move forward after a bad car accident caused by a reckless driver, thanks to a settlement secured by the attorneys at The Button Law Firm.
In January 2020, a distracted driver ran a red light and slammed into the passenger side of our client’s car. The liability was clear in this case: Body camera footage recorded the distracted driver admitting fault for causing the accident.
However, our client suffered severe physical and psychological injuries as a result of the T-bone car accident. That is when he called our Texas car accident attorneys, who sprang into action.
Damages The Button Law Firm Fought to Cover
Our client required medical attention from more than five different providers around the DFW Metroplex to diagnose and provide initial treatment for his physical injuries.
His medical providers diagnosed the following injuries:
- Severe shoulder pain caused by a labral tear, bicep tendinitis, subacromial impingement, and excessive synovitis of the glenohumeral joint
- Hand stiffness and numbness
- Upper and lower back pain (including limited rotation) that spanned down to his left foot, caused by fascia and tendon myalgias, and lumbar radiculopathy
- Neck pain
He underwent surgery and steroid injections to treat his injuries. He also required extensive physical therapy to regain strength, endurance, flexibility, and range of motion in his shoulder. Treatments included electric stimulation and manual therapy.
As you can imagine, in addition to experiencing a traumatic car accident and undergoing several intense medical treatments, our client also experienced emotional trauma. His injuries have caused a strain on his enjoyment of life. He has been forced to miss several family events and birthdays and became isolated from his friends because of severe pain. Before the accident, he was an avid golfer and worked out every day. It is now impossible for him to participate in those activities, as it is challenging for him to maintain his strength and health.
Our personal injury attorneys at The Button Law Firm fought for this client to secure a settlement that covered:
- His existing medical bills
- Ongoing medical treatments for his permanent disfigurement that continually causes pain
- Treatment for his emotional and psychological stress
He now has the financial security and peace of mind to control his physical pain and move forward with his life.
