Attorney Jesus Rosa Secures $165,000 Settlement After Another Firm Walked Away

Angel Reyes & Associates Steps in Against a Defense That Tried to Minimize the Crash

Attorney Jesus Rosa of Angel Reyes & Associates has secured a $165,000 settlement for a client who was rear-ended while stopped at a red light on FM 3351. Our client came to us after a different firm had already dropped her car accident case, and the defendant’s side was working hard to make this crash look like nothing.

A Case Another Firm Gave Up On

Our client was waiting at a red light when the defendant, traveling in the same direction, failed to notice the stopped vehicle and rear-ended her. No police responded to the scene, the airbags did not deploy, and the two drivers exchanged information and went their separate ways. Those facts, on the surface, might not look like much. But the injuries were real, and so was the fight ahead.

The client initially sought help from a local law firm in San Antonio. That firm dropped her case, so she came to us instead.

Handling Defense Tactics

The defendant’s side tried to frame this as a minor, low-speed fender-bender. Their argument: the impact was so slight it was absorbed by the vehicle’s frame, and there was little visible damage. They also pointed to the fact that no repairs were made, using that to reinforce their low-speed narrative.

We saw through it. Using the defendant’s own property damage photographs during her deposition, we demonstrated that the impact was far more significant than she was claiming. We also retained experts, including a Life Care Plan from PLCP, to document our client’s injuries and future medical needs. When the defense filed motions to compel two independent medical examinations of our client, we pushed back. The judge agreed with us and limited it to one.

Every move they made to minimize this claim, we answered.

Why This Result Matters

A $165,000 settlement does not happen by accident, especially in a case that another law firm had already given up on. Our legal team is willing to dig into the details, challenge the other side’s narrative, and refuse to let a client be written off.

At Angel Reyes & Associates, we take cases seriously regardless of how straightforward or complicated they look at the start. Our client trusted us when she had every reason to be skeptical, and we are proud we could deliver for her.
