Insurance Company Refused to Pay for Medical Care

Quentin Quimsley was seriously hurt in a car crash and saw two prior attorneys before coming to see the Law Offices of Dianne Sawaya. He had gotten a lot of medical treatment for his injuries, but instead of being paid for by his health insurance, the providers placed a lien on Quentin’s potential settlement for the full medical charges. The doctors who saw him gave conflicting diagnoses and couldn’t agree on whether Quentin should get surgery and if so, which kind. Because he saw so many doctors and received so much treatment, when in fact he should have had surgery, the at-fault party’s insurance company refused to pay the medical bills. Once Quentin talked to Dianne Sawaya, that changed. Dianne negotiated a settlement for more than three times the amount of what Quentin owed in medical bills. Plus, her sharp negotiating skills got the amount Quentin owed his doctors reduced, putting more money in his pocket.

Settlement: $200,000
