Serious Personal Injury Testimonial

July 21st, 2009

I was involved in a motor vehicle accident when I was driving with the right-of-way and another vehicle blew a stop sign, crashing into the side of my vehicle.

I am a 59 year old woman with an extensive history of fibromyalgia, widespread body pain, chronic fatigue, poor sleep and occasional dizziness which were aggravated by stress and anxiety. I also had a history of TMJ.

However, as a direct result of the collision, I suffered a significant aggravational injury and serious physical trauma. I suffered a loss of consciousness, concussion, face laceration, vertigo, nausea, headaches, TMJ disorder and severe soft tissue injury to my cervical and thoracic spine.

I required physiotherapy, massage therapy, TMJ splinting, chiropractic care, vestibular physiotherapy, acupuncture, craniosacral massage and medication.

I retained Cuming & Gillespie to represent me in my fight against the insurer who felt that I only suffered minor aggravational injuries.

Cuming & Gillespie represented me very well. I was very nervous and apprehensive about the whole legal process. They helped me understand it each step of the way and cared about me and protected my legal interests in a way that respected my concerns.

My claim was settled after I participated in a private mediation with the adjuster and the lawyer who represented the insurance company. I felt that I was heard through-out this process. I was very pleased with the compensation I received - it will help me obtain any future medical treatment that I may require for the rest of my life.

I highly recommend Cuming & Gillespie for anyone who is seriously injured and is daunted by the whole legal process.
