Some accidents are Moderate- Impact with Soft-Tissue (MIST) injuries which take great skill in properly preparing. One of our clients was hit by a garbage truck, causing the airbags to deploy, from which she went partially deaf from the impact.

Personal injury case valuation and settlement amounts vary greatly. The insurance companies will often offer a few hundred dollars to see if you will take it to sign away your rights.
