The driver was speeding and had been drinking alcohol. The car hit a curb, spun out of control, and crashed into a brick wall near a fire station. The impact was severe, and the vehicle&nbsp;didn\u2019t&nbsp;stop until&nbsp;nearly 200&nbsp;feet after the&nbsp;initial&nbsp;crash.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our client&nbsp;suffered a concussion along with blurred vision, slurred speech, migraines, chest bruising, and neck and back injuries. These symptoms affected daily life and caused ongoing pain, stress, and difficulty sleeping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the claim involved a close personal relationship, our team carefully advocated for the injured passenger while handling the situation with sensitivity. By presenting medical support and research showing how concussions can impact a\u00a0person\u00a0long-term, we were able to secure a fair outcome without going to court.\u00a0In the end, our client received a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ppcdmlaw.wpenginepowered.com\/settlement-checks\/\"><strong>$200,000\u00a0settlement<\/strong><\/a>, which was\u00a0double the original offer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This settlement helped pay medical bills and provided meaningful compensation for pain, suffering, and any future care that may be needed. Most importantly, it gave&nbsp;our&nbsp;client peace of mind. After experiencing multiple accidents in&nbsp;a short period&nbsp;of time, this resolution helped&nbsp;him&nbsp;finally feel like they could move forward and focus on healing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our client, a&nbsp;teenager,&nbsp;was seriously hurt while riding as a passenger in a car driven by a family friend.&nbsp;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","result-category":[15,34],"class_list":["post-7998","result","type-result","status-publish","hentry","result-category-motor-vehicle-accident","result-category-brain-injury"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>DM Injury Law Secures $200K for Teenager Hurt in DUI Crash<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Mike\u2019s Got This!
