Successful Recovery in Underinsured Motorist Case Following T-Bone Collision

Mentor, United States - December 3, 2025 / Piscitelli Law Firm - Injury & Car Accident Lawyer /

Cleveland, Ohio - The Piscitelli Law Firm successfully secured a $300,000 total recovery for a 78-year-old individual who sustained injuries in a 50 mph T-bone collision.

After the driver at fault provided Ohio's minimum limits of $25,000, the firm sought to access the client's $300,000 underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage.

The injuries experienced by the client included resolved soft-tissue damage and radial tunnel syndrome - a painful condition caused by the compression of the radial nerve in the upper forearm, leading to discomfort, weakened grip, and pain during rotation.

The UIM insurance provider initially proposed a settlement of $70,000.

In response, the firm initiated legal proceedings for $275,000 (the UIM limit minus the $25,000 offset).

After several months of legal negotiations, the insurer agreed to pay the full $275,000, resulting in a total recovery of $300,000.

"UIM coverage is designed to ensure individuals are made whole when the responsible party is underinsured," stated Frank Piscitelli, Jr.

"When the insurance company undervalued our client's claim, we took legal action-and successfully recovered the full benefits of the policy."

Case Overview:

  • Incident: T-bone collision at approximately 50 mph
