The snow was accumulating quickly and the roadways became icy; the plows could not keep up. As the snow blew across the road, drivers became unable to see the vehicles in front of them, resulting in the multi-vehicle accidents.
This was the scene on Saturday in western Pennsylvania as heavy snow and wind created whiteout conditions causing accidents involving more than 50 vehicles including tractor-trailers, a petroleum tanker, Fed X truck, and a school bus. At least four people were taken to nearby hospitals with serious injuries and three people died.
Although the accidents were largely due to snowy conditions, accident reconstruction may reveal other factors such as speeding or other driver negligence. Some victims or their families may have claims for personal injury or wrongful death against negligent or reckless drivers.
Insurance companies are known for making low-ball settlement offers; offers that are a fraction of what a case is worth. They use tactics forcing plaintiffs into early settlements because they know many victims cannot afford to wait out a lengthy litigation process.
If you are worried about money, you may be inclined to settle your case too soon for too little. While an auto accident attorney helps maximize compensation for your injuries and damages, a lawsuit cash advance can provide a bridge between an early settlement and full recovery. Pre-settlement funding helps victims deal with unexpected bills and other pressing financial business, like the mortgage and car payments. Because lawsuit funding is a non-recourse cash advance, if the plaintiff loses their case the repayment is waived. Don’t settle for less because you cannot afford to wait for a just and equitable settlement. Call Lawsuit Financial for a free no-obligation consultation or apply online.

Jury Returns Verdict in Six Year Old Auto Accident Case
A Sacramento, CA jury awarded $620,000 in an auto accident that left the victim with a serious debilitating back injury. The accident occurred in February 2006 when a truck driver negligently clipped the back of another vehicle during a lane change causing the driver of that vehicle to spin out of control and hit the plaintiff’s car. The plaintiff suffered two herniated disks in his lower back that ultimately required surgery and left him unable to continue employment as a factory worker. The defendant admitted fault for causing the accident, but denied the plaintiff was seriously injured.
Might a case like this be a viable candidate for lawsuit funding? Possibly. Any plaintiff can pursue litigation funding. The size of the lawsuit does not determine whether a plaintiff is financially strapped for cash. The largest determining factor is the significance of the accident’s economic impact on the plainitiff’s ability to pay his/her bills and how long the case will take to resolve. That a case is considered “small” may create an inability to fund or may require the funding to be on the “small side”, but funding may still be possible. Even a small lawsuit cash advance in a small case may prevent a plaintiff from settling too soon for too little compensation.
Lawsuit Financial is able to provide a timely (within 24 to 48 hours of approval) cash advance to allow litigation plaintiffs to meet their financial obligations while awaiting case resolution. There is no risk; repayment is conditioned upon the outcome of the case. If you lose the case; you keep the money, free of charge. Can’t work because of your injuries? That is not a problem. We approve or deny pre-settlement funding based upon the strengths and weaknesses of your case; good/bad credit, employment/ unemployment doesn’t matter. If approved, funding is available within 24–48 hours. Applying for lawsuit funding is an easy, no hassle, no risk way to pay your bills timely in the event that your lawsuit is not.

Teen Wins Lawsuit in Auto Accident That Ended Her Volleyball Career
In August 2009, a teen was stopped for traffic when she was rear-ended by another driver. The impact pushed her vehicle into the rear of another automobile. The teen was initially diagnosed with cervical and thoracic sprains. However, within three months, she was experiencing lower back pain and was diagnosed with a lumbar sprain, instability and facet joint syndrome.
The victim filed a personal injury lawsuit. The suit alleges that the defendant was negligent in the operation of her vehicle. The plaintiff claimed that her injuries curtailed her promising volleyball career. A medical expert opined that her thoracic sprain is now chronic, she still has lumbar instability and facet joint syndrome, and her back periodically freezes. Without monthly chiropractic treatment, she is unable to lead an active lifestyle. The lawsuit sough damages of $297,973. The defendant disputed the seriousness of the plaintiff's alleged injuries, arguing that she suffered whiplash and her injuries healed within three weeks of the accident. The jury awarded the plaintiff $88,681.78 in total damages for past and future medical expenses and pain and suffering.
