$180,000 Settlement From Bus Accident That Caused Chronic Whiplash Syndrom And Concussion

4 Apr 2021 Personal Injury

On April 8, 2016, our client was parked behind Dunbar Middle School located in Lynchburg, Virginia. On the same day and time, the defendant was driving a charter bus that had just dropped off children at the school. As the bus attempted to pass our client, the bus collided with the front, driver’s side of our client’s vehicle. The impact caused two of our client’s tires to be slashed along with damage to the entire driver’s side of the vehicle in which our client was sitting. Further, the impact caused our client to be jolted into the middle console of the vehicle.

Our client began feeling symptoms immediately after the impact. Once the impact occurred, our client felt a burning pain in her left arm. Within an hour she began noticing the pain in the back of her neck which progressed throughout the night of April 8, 2016. Since the date of the collision, our client experienced pain that had not subsided. She has sought care from orthopedic specialists in addition to the chiropractic care she has received. 

Our client incurred medical expenses of about $42,000.00. Our client’s doctor classified our client’s injury as chronic whiplash syndrome. This type of whiplash syndrome requires consistent treatment. The doctor estimated that our client would need at least 2 medial branch blocks a year for the next five years. She indicated that there is a possibility that these branch blocks may be needed for as long as ten years into the future. We estimated future medical treatment during those periods for mediation.

Our client also sustained a concussion in this wreck.  She treated with concussion specialist at OrthoVirginia who referred her to vestibular therapy. After approximately 21 rounds of vestibular therapy, our client’s symptoms had greatly improved and she no longer needed formal physical therapy for her concussion.    

Our firm, in conjunction with another local attorney, was able to help our client resolve her case in mediation for $180,000.

Brandon and his team at Osterbind Law are truly peerless. This is exactly how a modern personal injury firm should operate. The firm is holistic in its approach and thoughtful. It's no wonder why they get such great results for their clients. And no surprise, their clients love them. I've had the pleasure of working with Brandon on a professional level and he levels up, big time. Kudos.

The entire team at Osterbind Law are incredible. They communicated with us with every step and process that was happening . They provided the knowledge, support, and empathy to us on the case. And when the curve ball was thrown, they dug in deeper. I have nothing but the highest respect for Brandon and Hannah and the entire team. They made us feel more like a family, than a client.
