Episode Details:
Wilshire Law Firm trial attorneys Daniel DeSantis and Jon Teller explain how they secured justice for Belinda Stewart, a traveling nurse who sustained severe spinal damage as a result of a car crash involving a distracted driver. A distracted driver crashed into Belinda's car with enough speed to thrust Belinda's vehicle up onto the sidewalk and into the car in front of her. Belinda sustained significant neck pain and lower back pain as a result of the crash and sought out chiropractic care, physical therapy and epidural pain management before undergoing surgery, resulting in metal rods and screws being placed in her spine. Despite the defense's attempts to blame Belinda's back pain on degeneration, rather than the crash, and to assert that Belinda's three back surgeries were unnecessary, a Los Angeles, California jury returned a $1,382,000 verdict, which was more than five times the value of the defense's pre-trial offer.
