$450,000 Settlement After 6 Days of Trial

Following six days of trial, our client, a 41-year-old construction worker who collided with a truck, obtained a $450,000 settlement. During the lawsuit, our firm alleged that the driver was negligent in the operation of his truck and that the employer was liable because the accident occurred during the course of the driver’s employment. As a result, our client sustained a disc herniation for which he underwent cervical fusion surgery and a meniscus tear for which he underwent knee surgery.
