Desperate to find a cure for their debilitating symptoms, Eguilos began an exhaustive course of treatment, consisting of orthopedic and pain management consultations and physical therapy. Unfortunately, however, her symptoms persisted, and she was forced to undergo a C5-6, C6-7 Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion.

The Defendant driver's insurance carrier initially denied liability. Even though the Defendant driver's airbags deployed, the insurance carrier argued this was a "minor" collision. They argued that Eguilos's pain and brain injury pre-dated the crash because she had "similar" prior complaints.

By deposing key medical witnesses, Jerome Bellotti of Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, Inc. successfully negated the insurance carrier's expert's opinions and convincingly proved the car crash caused Eguilos's need for surgery. This effort resulted in the insurance carrier increasing their settlement offer by more than $1,100,000 a few weeks before the parties were to report for trial.

Harris Personal Injury Lawyers, Inc. tirelessly put pressure on the defense to secure a $1,200,000 settlement for their client.
