1. Summary

In April 2022, a foreign driver (“Client”) was involved in a traffic accident when a vehicle suddenly stopped in front of the Client’s one on a yellow line, causing a rear-end collision after failing to avoid the stopped car. The Client’s vehicle was totaled, and the Client received constant medical treatment for over a year.

After the accident, despite attempts to claim compensation from the at-fault driver or its insurer, the Client was unable to receive appropriate insurance payment or compensation for damages. To address this issue, the Client approached our firm.

2. Our Role

Regarding the traffic accident, we checked whether:
1. there were any violations of the 12 major traffic rules (e.g., traffic signal violation, lane infringement, DUI, speeding, driving without a license, etc.);
2. the at-fault driver’s insurer covered medical expenses for the Client;
3. the Client suffered from any remaining disabilities or aftereffects;
4. the compensation for the totaled vehicle was received.

We investigated the entire incident by reviewing the Traffic Accident Verification Certificate and the information reported to the at-fault driver’s insurer.

Furthermore, our role included ensuring that the Client continued to receive active medical support aimed at a full recovery from his injuries, even during the ongoing treatment after the accident.

In particular, we had to consider potential insurance claims and damage compensation related to any post-settlement aftereffects if the Client’s treatment was not completed.

Ultimately, we successfully negotiated the final settlement amount that took into account the Client’s ongoing treatment and medical situation.

3. Significance

When someone unexpectedly experiences a traffic accident, one often finds oneself in an unfamiliar and devastating situation. Especially for foreigners, communication issues with insurance companies and a lack of understanding of the local legal process may lead to difficulties in asserting their rights.
With our expertise in representing foreigners, we help our clients understand and protect their rights while striving to achieve maximum recovery of damages and avoid self-incrimination through careful analysis and strategic support.
