Lawlor Winston, LLP Obtains $300,000 Settlement for Injured Housekeeper

Fort Lauderdale – September 22, 2010 – Mercedes Hernandez was driving her car on Lake Worth Road in West Palm Beach FL, and was about to turn in to a local business’s parking lot when Michael Bonomolo failed to notice Hernandez’s vehicle, and struck her from the rear. Bonomolo caused significant damage to Hernandez’s car, and an ambulance took Hernandez to a local hospital from the accident scene. An MRI revealed the accident caused multiple herniated disks in Hernandez’s back. Hernandez underwent spinal surgery and suffered through more than a year of painful rehabilitation. During that time, Hernandez missed a significant amount of work. Hernandez’ attorney, Ben Murphey, sent Bonomolo’s insurance carrier a detailed demand package requesting a tender of Bonomolo’s policy limits. The recovery represents the carrier’s entire policy limit for Bonomolo.

“The result in this case is a perfect example of how Florida’s current bad faith insurance law works to protect those wrongfully injured by the negligence of others,” said Murphey.
