$23,000 Settlement for Woman Involved in Car Accident in St. Clair County, IL

In December of 2013 a client of Michael Knepper of the Sauter Sullivan law firm was involved in a car accident.   The client, a 47 year old woman, was driving in St. Clair County, IL on a four lane road when another driver turned onto the wrong side of the divided road.  She couldn’t stop  in time and struck the other vehicle that turned into her lane.  She suffered injuries to her head, neck, and back including a disc protrusion.  She had to go the emergency room after the car crash, and had to undergo chiropractic treatment.  Knepper filed a claim with the other driver’s insurance company and was able to negotiate a settlement of $23,000 for his client.
