Auto Crash – Brain/Neck/Back Injury
Our client was stopped at a stop sign in California when they were struck from behind in a rear-end collision. The impact caused a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI), a neck injury, and back injuries serious enough to require surgical intervention. Even at moderate speeds, rear-end collisions can cause severe cervical spine injuries and traumatic brain injuries because of the sudden deceleration that whips the head and neck forward and backward with significant force.
The combination of a traumatic brain injury alongside neck and back injuries requiring surgery presented serious challenges and a lengthy, complex recovery. Symptoms of the mTBI – including persistent headaches, cognitive difficulty, and mood changes – compounded the physical pain of post-surgical recovery, affecting our client’s ability to work and function in normal daily life. Feher Law documented the full extent of these overlapping injuries and built a comprehensive damages case to reflect their true impact.
The case settled for $1,450,973.80 – covering medical expenses, surgical costs, lost income, pain and suffering, and the ongoing effects of the traumatic brain injury. If you were rear-ended and suffered brain, neck, or back injuries in a car accident in California, Feher Law is ready to pursue full compensation on your behalf.
