We represented a young woman and her niece who were passengers in a vehicle that was involved in a serious accident in Queen Anne’s County, Maryland. The adult suffered a right tibial plateau fracture and the child suffered significant gastrointestinal injuries that resulted in removal of 17 cm of her bowel. The responsible driver initially denied liability and blamed the accident on the driver of the vehicle in which our clients were passengers. After filing suit, we were able to obtain a settlement for the responsible driver’s full insurance policy of $100,000 for each client. This allowed us to avoid a trial, which our minor client particularly wished to avoid.
