Florida Car Accident Settlements/Verdicts for exactly $10,000

Below are just a few of Miami injury lawyer Justin Ziegler's many successful car accident injury settlements for exactly $10,000. To see some of our many other personal injury car accident settlements/verdicts or other types of settlements for injury victims, please see our Settlements/Verdicts page. 

$10,000 Settlement for a Michigan woman who was injured while driving her car in Florida. She treated at the hospital and then with a chiropractor for several months. Her injuries were soft tissue. The driver who was at fault was insured with GEICO.

$10,000 Settlement for a Cuban American 30 year old who was rear ended by driver insured by State Farm who hit our driver while our driver was stopped in the emergency lane on I-95.  Our client's injuries included back pain and a serious eye injury. He was treated at the Anne Bates Leach eye center, Jackson Memorial Hospital, and Bascon Palmer in Miami, Florida.  Unfortunately, the driver and owner of the car that rear ended our client were underinsured, and our client did not have underinsured motorist insurance which would have resulted in a much larger payout for our client.

$10,000 Settlement for a back seat female passenger of a car suffered personal injury when another car struck the car which she was in. At the moment of impact, her shoulder hit the car seat. The at fault driver is insured by Progressive. The car accident occurred in Miami, Florida. The passenger's injuries include a full thickness rotator cuff tear and a herniated disc. She would like to have shoulder surgery to relieve her pain. The insurance company initially offered only $2,000. Justin clearly explained to the insurance adjuster that this claim was worth more than the negligent driver's policy limits.  This person injury claim illustrates the importance of carrying underinsured motorist insurance. Our client did not have health insurance and the money we recovered is unfortunately not enough to cover her for a rotator cuff surgery.  If she would have had underinsured motorist insurance, she would have been able to have a rotator cuff repair.

$10,000 Settlement for a 21 year old Cuban-American woman who was hit by a driver/owner of a car insured by State Farm. Our client's injuries were soft tissue in addition to headaches. There was significant damage to our client's automobile. Our client did not have an MRI; she treated in Doral, Florida.

$10,000 Settlement for a 20 old woman who was rear ended in a car long with her mother and relative.  The at fault party received a citation for reckless driving and was insured by Progressive.  We threatened punitive damages if we filed a lawsuit.  We had the client sign a waiver of conflict of interest so that we felt comfortable represent all three injured accident victims of the same car.

$10,000 Settlement for a young woman who was a passenger in a car which was crushed by a pole which fell after being struck by a negligent driver was allegedly drunk. We are still waiting for the toxicology (blood and alcohol) reports from the hospital which we may obtain through subpoenas should we file a lawsuit.  Sadly, our client's boyfriend was killed instantly in this accident.  The insurance company for the car which caused this accident was U.S. Security.  We are still making a claim against the alleged drunk driver.  Our client sustained soft tissue injuries and she may have an MRI very shortly.  Click here to read an interesting case which explains the rights someone has for emotional distress resulting in physical injury due to injury to another.  If the driver of the car that our client was in, or our client's mother, would have opted to carry uninsured motorist insurance, she would have received a substantial amount of money to cover her damages for pain and suffering as well as emotional distress.

$10,000 Settlement for a young man whose car was t-boned by another car that failed to yield the right of way in the intersection in Miami, Florida. He required 2 sets of stitches on his face; 7 stitches on his forehead and 20 stitches in his eyebrow. He has neck pain and is treating with doctors in South Miami, Florida. The policy limits of the tortfeasor were only $10,000 which is very typical in Florida, because the laws do not require that car owners carry any bodily injury insurance. Had our client had underinsured motorist insurance, we would have been able to get him more money. Our client did not carry underinsured motorist insurance, thus we could not make a claim against his insurance company for any amount above $10,000.

$10,000 Settlement (Policy Limits) for a passenger in a car whose personal injury included broken ribs and damage to his spleen. He spent several days in the hospital. The accident occurred in Miami, Florida near Kendall. We are working on reducing his medical bills. Our client 's father (resident relative) did not carry underinsured motorist insurance on his car, therefore we could not make a claim for any amount above $10,000.

$10,000 Settlement for our client, a young female realtor at the time, whose personal injury included 2 herniated discs which impinged on the thecal sac. She was hit by an uninsured driver who was driving a rental. Unfortunately, rental car companies are only required, if at all, to have minimal insurance limits. This is yet another example of a client who would have been able to recover thousands of dollars more had she purchased uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance. The driver that hit our client did not carry bodily injury insurance.  Our client did not carry undinsured motorist insurance on his car, therefore we could not make a claim for any amount above $10,000.

$10,000 Settlement on behalf of a young female driver who injured her wrist when she was struck by another car while driving her vehicle. The at fault driver was insured by Nationwide and the policy limits were $10,000. Our client did not have underinsured motorist insurance on her GEICO polciy, but if she had underinsured motorist insurance, she would have been able to have received fair value for her personal injury, which would have been greater than $10,000.

$10,000 Policy Limits Settlement on behalf of a mall security guard who was struck by a car while patrolling the mall in a golf cart. The owner of the car which the at fault driver was driving was insured by Allstate. The driver/owner of the car that hit our client was undersinsured, thus our client was prevented from receiving many more thousands of dollars because he chose to reject underinsured motorist insurance coverage.

$10,000 Settlement on behalf of a pedestrian who was hit by a driver of car in a parking lot. The driver was insured by Clarendon National Insurance Company (RAC Insurance Partners LLC). The driver of the car that hit her was underinsured.

$10,000 Settlement on behalf of a motorist against her uninsured motorist insurance (American Vehicle Insurance Company) policy when a hit and run driver rear ended her car then fled the scene.

$10,000 Policy Limits Settlement for a driver who was rear ended by a driver insured by GEICO. MRI's revealed a torn rotator cuff tear, a herniated disc, and multiple bulging discs. Unfortunately, there were no personal assets that we could go after. Our client did not carry undinsured motorist insurance on his car, therefore we could not make a claim for any amount above $10,000.

$10,000 Policy Limits Settlement for a woman who was injured when she was a passenger in a car which was rear ended. State Farm insured the driver who caused the accident.
