While many people are emotionally suffering due to rising unemployment and adverse economic conditions, those who suffer perhaps the most during these troubling times are innocent victims in personal injury cases.  Our office just settled the case of one young lady, which is a classic example of what we address in this article.  Simply stated, this young lady is a living profile in courage.<\/p>\n<p>On the date in question, our client was struck by a vehicle traveling on the wrong side of the road.  This could have been a fatality but miraculously the client lived.  Even though the client had innumerable orthopaedic injuries and several surgeries to treat the same, and even though her medical expenses were in excess of $150,000.00, the client always remained resolute in the face of these problems.  When told that the defendant that caused her injuries  had less insurance coverage than the amount of her medical bills, she simply accepted it and recognized that there was little or nothing that she could do about it.  We see the prayer \u201cGod grant me the courage to change those things that I can change and to accept what I cannot,\u201d and here was a lady who \u201cwalked the walk and talked the talk.\u201d  She accepted her fate, she dealt with her problems and she was grateful for the gift of life since she had survived what could have been a fatal accident.<\/p>\n<p>Not only did this client experience a very, very painful injury, she had to risk the loss of her job, she had to hang on to her home all while she was going through a failing marriage.   Yes it is true that times are tough.  Indeed, life itself can be tough.  But for someone who is going through troubling times in a slowing economy and a bad marriage, to also have inflicted on them, through no fault of their own and suffer  serious personal injuries, is obviously a tremendous burden to bear.<\/p>\n<div class=\"read_more_link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.finchmccranie.com\/blog\/profiles-in-courage-innocent-p\/\"  title=\"Continue Reading Profiles In Courage: Innocent Personal Injury Victims\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In today\u2019s economic times, we hear a lot of discussion about the problems that people are having financially.
