Pedestrian Accident Neck & Back Injury
Back and neck injuries are common in pedestrian accidents, and unfortunately, some such injuries result in lifelong complications which require ongoing medical treatment. If you or a loved one has suffered a back or neck injury in an accident due to another’s negligence, you deserve to be fully compensated for your injuries and losses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Here are some examples of Illinois settlements for pedestrian accidents involving back and neck injuries:
- Winnebago County – Carlson v. Ennis – A pedestrian walking through a crosswalk was struck by a drunk driver, resulting in the severe brain, back, and neck injuries. The case was settled before a trial was necessary and the pedestrian received about $365,000 in compensation: $300,000 from the plaintiff, and $64,890 from the local golf club for serving the defendant beyond an intoxicated state.
- Will County – Stuart v. Trager – A 45 year-old woman was struck from behind by a vehicle and thrown forward, resulting in soft tissue injuries in the back and neck as well as an exacerbated seizure-problem. The case was settled before a trial was necessary and the pedestrian received $150,000 in compensation.
- Kane County – Griffin v. Vasquez – A 37 year-old pedestrian was struck head-on by a vehicle while walking down a sidestreet, resulting in soft tissue injuries in the neck. The pedestrian, with the help of an attorney, successfully argued that the driver was negligent and a jury awarded her $15,275 in compensation: about two-thirds of which were for medical expenses and the remainder for lost wages.
