Case Details
A 24-year-old pregnant woman became an incomplete quadriplegic after an ATV accident at Ocotillo Wells in San Diego County. Her shoe became entrapped in the ATV's wheel due to a design defect, causing her to lose control and collide with a dirt wall, resulting in multiple cervical spine fractures.
Additional Notes
Settled for $4 million against a confidential manufacturer of ATVs, motorcycles, and cars. Settlement offered before jury deliberation. Success attributed to relentless discovery and proving manufacturer's liability despite client's memory loss.
