$840,000 Settlement After Hillsboro Collision

The plaintiff was driving in the Hillsboro area of Route 9 accompanied by her elderly aunt and fiancé when a car coming from oncoming traffic crossed over the double line and struck the driver’s side of her vehicle with such force, the airbags were deployed. The crash resulted in multiple injuries to the plaintiff including a very serious ankle fracture. The injuries sustained to her ankle required her to endure two surgeries and almost a year of physical therapy only to still be left unable to work and return to her daily activities. Her medical bills totaled $128,283.30. After mediation, Attorney Peter Pentony of WilliamsFord was able to negotiate an $840,000 settlement for his client without having to involve her in time-consuming litigation.
