A young man suffered a severe hip fracture when a truck slammed into his vehicle. His orthopedic doctor said that this young man would need a hip replacement for the rest of his life. Specifically, hip replacement refers to a surgical procedure performed to replace the hip joint with a prosthetic implant. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately one out of every five hip fracture patients dies within one year of injury. In extreme cases, patients who undergo surgery for hip fractures are unable to regain their ability to walk. In this vehicle accident case, unfortunately, there was only $300,000 in insurance coverage. This case was settled without the necessity of a trial.
Awarded: $300,000
