$400,000 Settlement for Client Injured in Rear-End Collision with Delivery Truck Driver in Claremont, CA

Samer Habbas & Associates Delivers a Major Result in a Non Surgical Auto Accident Case.

Samer Habbas & Associates secured a $400,000 settlement for a client injured when a delivery truck driver rear-ended him at the intersection of N. Mountain Ave. & Foothill Blvd. in Claremont, California.

Rear-End Auto Accident Involving a Commercial Delivery Vehicle

Our client was stopped at a red light when a commercial delivery truck slammed into the back of his pickup. The impact caused him lumbar spine injuries, including disc protrusions, facet joint issues, and chronic low-back pain. Although the defense attempted to minimize the injuries, the medical record reflected a consistent pattern of pain requiring conservative treatment. The client underwent 2 facet injections but had no surgeries or any recommendations.

Injuries & Treatment

While not a catastrophic injury case, the crash caused persistent lumbar spine pain that disrupted daily life.
The client underwent:

• Physical therapy & chiropractic care
• Lumbar MRI imaging
• Pain management evaluations
• Lumbar facet injections and ongoing conservative care
• Continued recommendations for interventional pain treatment

The case was driven largely by pain and suffering, not high medical specials—demonstrating the strength of our legal strategy.

Legal Strategy in a Causation Disputed Case

Even with a rear-end collision, causation was contested. Our litigation team rebuilt the case from the ground up—using evidence, expert-supported medical documentation, and aggressive negotiation tactics to get this matter resolved.

No policy-limits tender was available.
Just strong lawyering.

Through strategic litigation and positioning, our attorneys pushed the defense into a corner and achieved a $400,000 settlement—a true home-run result for a case centered on persistent but non-surgical back injuries.

Result

• Final Recovery: $400,000
• Case Type: Rear-end auto accident involving a commercial delivery truck driver
• Liability: Not disputed.
• Injuries: Lower-back injury requiring facet injections
