Case Details
Jury awarded $927,000 to a local man and his wife for injuries after a large tractor-trailer rig forced their car off the road, causing a collision with a car waiting at a stop sign.
Additional Notes
The jury found the truck driver 90% at fault; the driver dodging the truck was only 10% at fault. The victim sitting at the stop sign had zero fault. The total judgment was just shy of $1-million after interest and court costs were added, with 90% paid by the trucker’s insurer. The insurer had denied liability. The jury’s verdict included $127,000 for past medical expenses, $100,000 for future medical expenses, plus $700,000 for the devastating impact on the victim and his family, affecting their active lifestyle.
