Jonathan Williams, Personal Injury Attorney and Junior Partner at Dworkin and Maciariello, recently won a $500,000 settlement for a client involved in a semi-truck vehicle collision in Chicago.
The client was driving down a highway when a semi-truck sideswiped their vehicle. As a result of the collision, the client suffered a severe neck injury that required cervical spine fusion surgery. She continues to experience long-term effects, including difficulty sleeping, reduced mobility, and challenges performing routine household tasks. As a single mother, these injuries have significantly impacted her daily life, making even simple activities such as turning her head or carrying groceries difficult.
The truck company and its insurance provider denied liability, claiming the client was at fault for entering their lane of traffic.
Undeterred, Junior Partner Jonathan Williams pursued justice for his client. This case relied on the testimony of the client and their passenger, along with detailed medical records documenting the injuries and treatment.
Regarding the case, Williams noted:
“This was a case where our client suffered serious injuries requiring a surgery and the insurance company denied that their insured was at fault. They wanted to pay our client nothing. We believed our client’s story from the start and fought for a significant, $500,000 settlement.”
Junior Partner Jonathan Williams worked to achieve a settlement that truly reflects the hardship the client faces after such a serious accident, providing her with the support needed to continue her recovery and move forward.
