Case Details

Our 66-year-old client was lawfully proceeding through the intersection at Seven Mile on Mound Road in Detroit when a massive commercial utility truck, hauling an attenuator trailer, blew through the red light and slammed into his car. The collision caused a catastrophic injury: quadriplegia, leaving him paralyzed from the neck down. He tragically succumbed to his injuries 19 months later, turning the case into a fight for justice for his wrongful death. The utility company deployed its significant resources to deny responsibility, blaming our client and using their own event data recorder (EDR) analysis to deflect fault. We unearthed a 911 call made by a bystander in the moments after the crash, clearly stating that the utility truck had run the red light.

Additional Notes

Settlement providing compensation for the immense pain our client endured and the profound loss his family will forever face. Injuries: quadriplegia, later leading to wrongful death.
