FLORIDA MOTOR VEHICLE (CAR AND AUTO) ACCIDENT SETTLEMENTS/VERDICTS

Miami Car Accident LawyerBelow are some of Miami Injury Lawyer Justin Ziegler's car accident injury settlements which are above $52,000. Other personal injury settlements involving car accidents (where our client's may have been riding a bicycles, motorcycle, golf cart, scooter/moped, or were a pedestrian) are listed on the links at the bottom of this page.   (This settlement page does not include other types of cases which settled for over $50,000.00.)


Three Hundred Twenty Five thousand dollar ($325,000.00) settlement during litigation (lawsuit) for car accident victim who had multiple leg surgeries. 


Two hundred twenty five thousand dollar ($225,000.00) settlement for a Swiss 41 year old information technology (I.T.) father and husband who was was hit by a car while a pedestrian while on vacation in Coconut Grove (Miami), Florida.   The $225,000 is comprised of payments from the following"entities: a , a $100,000 settlement check from the insurance company for a rental car company who insured a government employee (US Customs and Border Patrol) that caused this accident, and a $125,000.00 offer from the United States of America.  

This case is an important example of why it is best to consult an attorney in a serious personal injury accident. Also, an unexperienced personal injury lawyer or injured person would not know that the settlement check from the underlying bodily injury coverage should not be deposited into your bank account unless the release is proper.  Mr. Ziegler filed a claim under the FTCA (Federal Torts Claims Act) against the United States government and the United States did not make an offer within six (6) months of filing a administrative claim so Mr. Ziegler filed a lawsuit in Federal Court in the United States district court for the Southern District of Florida. This case is described in more detail in the Pedestrian Accident Cases page.

$100,000 Settlement (Policy Limits) for a woman who was hit by a Ford F-150 truck while she was pushing her bicycle across an intersection in Cooper City, Florida. The at fault party was insured for $100,000. She was airlifted to the hospital by Broward County Air Rescue. Unfortunately, as is too often, are client does have uninsured motorist insurance which would have given her many more thousands of dollars. This story made the Sun Sentinel newspaper as well as the Miami Herald. We have been in contact with a representative of Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, Florida reduce her medical bills. We are waiting to hear back from the hospital in response to our written request to reduce her medical bills. Our client 's son-in-law (resident relative) did not carry underinsured motorist insurance on his car, therefore she was unable to recover thousands of dollars which Miami Injury Lawyer Justin Ziegler would have been able to have the insurance company offer.


$100,000 Settlement (for the policy limits) on behalf of a young Homestead, Fl woman who was rear ended by a driver, in Miami (Miami-Dade County) insured with Liberty Mutual Insurance Company. Our client was driving a car insured by MGA Ins. Co. She had a bulging disc and she had a percutaneous discectomy performed. Liberty Mutual blamed the accident 50% on our client, whom they alleged hit the car in front of her before their insured rear ended our client.


$100,000 Settlement for personal injury paid by the Property & Casualty Insurance company of Hartford for a gentleman who was a passenger in a relatives car when the accelerator was pressed by the driver instead of the brake. The injury victim had thumb surgery as well as knee, head, neck and lower back pain.


$100,000 uninsured motorist settlement for a gentleman who was hit by a car that was "uninsured" for purposes of Florida law. Without an attorney, our client would not have known to file a civil remedy notice against the uninsured motorist insurance company, which Mr. Ziegler believes pressured them to pay this claim as the money was rightfully due. In fact the uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance company paid its settlement (insurance policy) limits after Mr. Ziegler filed a civil remedy notice and drafted a lawsuit against them.


$95,000 Settlement for a man who suffered a herniated disc after being hit by a drunk driver.

$75,000 Verdict where a driver was killed when hit by another truck. Liability was minimal on the driver who was at fault. Justin defended one of the insurance companies when he used to work as an insurance defense attorney represented drivers and owners of car who were being sued. 


$65,000.00 Settlement for a Madison, WI woman who suffered personal injury to her shoulder when she was rear ended in a car crash in Kissimmee (Orlando), Florida. She had arthroscopic surgery to her shoulder. The defendant's attorney and insurance company argued that her shoulder injury preexisted the accident. They also argued that her rotator cuff tear could not have been caused by a rear end collision.  The defendant was ticketed for the accident, but the defendant disputed liability.  The defendant was insured by First Commercial Insurance Company based out of Hialeah, Florida. This case settled one (1) month before trial.  Her out of pocket medical bills were about Six thousand dollars ($6,000.00). To read more, click here.


$57,000 Settlement on behalf of a police officer who was suffered back injury, while he was on duty, when he was rear ended in a car accident in Medley, Florida (North Miami-Dade County). The driver who caused the accident received a ticket for following too closely. We received the policy limits of $10,000 from the at fault party's insurance company, State Farm. Our client suffered a bulging disc and is a candidate for a lumbar laminectomy. He had epidural shots to his lower back. At the time of our settlement with the Underinsured Motorist Carrier Travelers Insurance Company (Travco), workers compensation for the police department paid over $17,000 in indemnity (lost wages) and medical benefits.

$52,000 Settlement on behalf of a 26 year old man who was injured (while he was on a scooter/moped) when a NAPA van's front end crashed into the moped. According to the police report, the driver of the van stopped and rendered aid but then fled the scene without giving any information. The driver of the van was later stopped. Miami-Dade Fire Rescue treated the driver of the moped on the scene. The driver of the van received a citation for failure to yield at intersection.
