Case Details
Rear-end car accident injury occurred at Irving Park Road and Cherry Street in Itasca, Illinois, where the client’s vehicle was stopped in traffic when it was hit by the defendant’s vehicle. Client previously suffered from back problems that were compounded due to the defendant’s negligence.
Additional Notes
Peter Wachowski, a partner at Bellas & Wachowski, successfully represents a rear-end car accident injury. The investigating police officer cited the defendant for driving too fast for the conditions and failing to reduce speed to avoid the car accident. The defendant told the investigating police officer that he didn’t sleep well, was tired, and did not stop in time. Client also went through years of therapy for stress, trauma, and driving phobia. Client’s injuries have made it difficult for her to travel and go hiking, two activities that she previously enjoyed doing, and therefore, a significant loss of enjoyment of life. At-fault motorist’s insurance liability limits were too low ($25,000). Pursued underinsured motorist (UIM) claim for additional damages of $140,000 with client’s insurance company.
