Car accidents, even minor ones, affect our lives. People often believe if there is minimal damage to their vehicle and/or they wait to seek treatment after a car accident that they may not be able to recover for their injuries. However, that is not always the case. A woman was recently awarded a $265,000.00 settlement in Culpepper Virginia after she was involved in a rear end collision with minor damage to her vehicle. She refused treatment at the time and there was a 15-month gap between the accident and eventual surgery that was required. Even with the minor damage and the gap in treatment, the injured party was able to recover a large settlement.
