A passenger was seriously injured when the rideshare vehicle they were traveling in was T-boned at an intersection by a distracted driver who failed to stop at a red light. The accident caused severe spinal injuries, requiring immediate surgery and months of physical therapy. The victim also suffered from psychological trauma due to the accident, which disrupted their ability to return to work and affected their quality of life.
The legal team demonstrated that the rideshare driver failed to maintain caution and the other motorist’s negligence combined the situation. Through persistent negotiations, the victim secured a $2 million settlement, with funds sourced from both the rideshare company’s insurance and the at-fault driver’s policy. This settlement ensured the victim could cover extensive medical expenses, ongoing rehabilitation, and future financial losses.
