Most all personal injury attorneys will tell you that in 2011 the California Supreme Court severely curtailed personal injury awards to plaintiffs in their decision of Howell v. Hamilton Meats & Provisions, Inc. This has hampered settlements in cases involving soft tissue injuries, aka whiplash. However, with aggressive representation, plaintiffs can still obtain favorable settlement amounts.
In a recent case, I was able to convince Allstate to offer the policy limits ($15,000) to my client, Mayra M., for the soft tissue injuries she sustained in a car accident.
