Case Details
The flat-bed trailer of a semi swung across the opposing lane on a sweeping turn near Grants Pass, Oregon. The trailer collided with a vehicle with three occupants. A two-year-old child was killed. The others in the vehicle suffered minor injuries. Our investigation revealed that a heavy-duty brace on the flat-bed trailer had not been properly maintained and, as a result, broke and led to the collision. The defense argued that the child was not restrained in a child seat during the collision. The case settled for $1.4 million dollars.
