From a Near-Fatal Crash to a $6 Million Settlement: Attorney Jany Martínez-Ward Secures Major Victory in Motorcycle Collision Case

Ward Law secured compensation for Jarisson Ospina, a 23-year-old Colombian man who suffered severe injuries after being struck by a truck whose driver ran a STOP sign.

Miami, United States, November 13, 2026 -- For Jarisson Ospina, what began as an ordinary day riding his motorcycle ended with weeks in the hospital and a recovery process that continues to this day. The 23-year-old Colombian man was struck by a truck whose driver ran a STOP sign, leaving him unconscious and with severe injuries.

Ospina suffered internal bleeding in his head, multiple injuries, a knee injury that required surgery, and loss of consciousness. When he awoke in the hospital, he did not even recognize his own family members.

“I only remember waking up in the hospital. I didn't know who I was or where I was,” Ospina recalls. “Thank God I'm alive and I still have all my limbs.”

Facing the physical, emotional, and financial consequences of the crash, Ospina turned to Jany Martínez-Ward, an attorney specializing in accident and personal injury cases, who led his legal representation.

The case resulted in a total settlement of $6 million. In addition, the Ward Law team successfully negotiated a reduction in Ospina's medical bills from approximately $875,000 to $414,000—a significant difference for a patient who continues to experience the effects of the crash, including severe headaches, anxiety, and hearing problems.

For attorney Jany Martínez-Ward, the outcome underscores why victims of serious collisions need to carefully evaluate their cases before accepting any settlement offer.

“After a crash, many people are focused solely on surviving, recovering, and paying their bills. But that is precisely when they need to protect their rights and make sure they understand the true impact their injuries may have on their future,” Martínez-Ward explains.

The renowned attorney advises motorcycle collision victims to seek medical attention immediately, document all injuries and treatments, preserve evidence related to the crash, avoid making statements that could negatively affect their cases, and consult with an attorney before accepting an offer from an insurance company.

“An injury may seem manageable at first, only to develop into a problem that affects someone's life for years,” Martínez-Ward points out. “Compensation must take into account not only what the victim is experiencing today, but also the consequences they may face tomorrow.”

Ospina's case also highlights the importance of having dedicated legal support throughout the process following a crash. Protecting your rights is not just about what happens in the first few hours or weeks. It is about having a legal team that stands by you and safeguards your interests over the long term as you navigate the physical, emotional, and financial consequences of an injury.

Beyond the settlement itself, Ospina particularly remembers the personalized attention he received from Jany Martínez-Ward's office and the attorney's direct involvement throughout the entire process. For someone trying to recover from a life-altering crash, having a team that knows the details of the case, understands their needs, and remains actively involved in protecting their rights can make a critical difference.
