Case Details

On December 29, 2017, our client, a 34-year-old male commercial truck driver, was transporting diesel fuel for his employer. Driving eastbound on HWY 66, he traveled through an intersection on a green light. The defendant approached and stopped at the red light. He turned right at that red light, a decision that would change our client’s life forever. His turn was too wide and poorly timed. Our client did his best to steer clear of the defendant’s car as it crossed into his lane. Unfortunately, a collision was unavoidable due to the size and weight of our client’s truck. The crash caused severe and permanent injury to our client’s cervical spine. Surgery was needed for cervical disk replacement to his neck’s C3-C4 and C6-C7 segments and a visible scar on our client’s neck. The defendant’s insurance company valued his injury at $150,000. After a year and a half and three continuances due to COVID-19, we settled the case for $1,350,000.00 three days before trial.
