How Trivent Legal Used Biomechanical Analysis to Strengthen a High-Impact Collision Case
Motor vehicle accidents account for 52% of personal injury cases in the U.S. However, when we first reviewed John Doe’s case, it was clear this was no ordinary crash. A detailed conversation with the client highlighted the serious nature of the collision, which shaped our approach to preparing a strong demand letter for this case.
John Doe’s Story:
John Doe was driving to get gas before work when a speeding dump truck, failing to stay in its lane on a hill, collided with his vehicle. The impact was catastrophic, sending his car off the road into a field. Trapped for nearly 30 minutes, Mr. Doe suffered serious injuries. We quickly realized that the combination of the hill, the truck’s speed, and its mass played a key role in the case and needed to be emphasized in the demand letter.
Our Analysis and Approach:
This case stood out because of the unique circumstances surrounding the crash. Our team dove into a thorough review of the records, researched the collision’s mechanics, and created a biomechanical report to back the demand letter. We linked the forces of the crash to Mr. Doe’s injuries:
The collision caused significant injuries to John Doe, including fractures to his arm and leg, hip strain from the impact, and internal injuries from the rapid deceleration. The force of the crash, combined with airbag deployment and sudden braking, resulted in serious trauma that required extensive medical attention. Additionally, the impact led to a potentially life-threatening aorta injury.
We outlined these injuries in our demand letter, emphasizing the severity and the biomechanics involved.
Key Areas of the Demand Letter:
Visual Evidence: We included detailed photos and illustrations to visually communicate the magnitude of the crash in the demand letter.
Injury & Treatment Summary: A comprehensive 25-page summary documented Mr. Doe’s injuries, hospitalizations, and rehabilitation.
Expert Opinion on Future Care: We sought advice from our in-house medical experts to accurately project Mr. Doe’s future medical costs, strengthening the demand letter for maximum compensation.
Long-Term Emotional Consequences: The demand letter also addressed the ongoing psychological effects, including PTSD, anxiety, and depression.
Impact & Suffering: We outlined the profound emotional toll, including Mr. Doe’s withdrawal from social life, in the demand letter to fully capture the suffering caused by the crash.
Special Services: Given the case’s complexity, we recommended specialized services such as medical cost projections to support the demand letter.
Conclusion:
Despite the complexity of this case, we embraced the challenge and applied our expertise to develop a strong demand letter that highlighted every crucial detail. Our thorough analysis and attention to the biomechanical factors assisted Mr. Doe’s case significantly.
